Made this for a special treat today for the family. It really makes a special sundae however; it is very sweet and a little goes a long, long way. It would make a very nice dessert to serve to company. I will definitely make this again. Thanks for sharing Tisme. Made and reviewed for the 38th AUS/NZ Recipe Swap.
