  2. 5 stars are not enough for this luscious, creamy, rich, light and chocolatey dessert. The truffle layer really makes it extra special. It was surprisingly easy to make, too. We just loved it. I will be making this again for the holidays. This is a real KEEPER! Thanks, GailAnn! Made for Photo Tag.

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too. God Bless America!
