What a fun recipe! Love the presentation and can see this done with other sweets--fruit, molten lava cake, brownies with pink peppermint, etc. Easy to do, can make ahead. Can see involving kids in painting aspect. Huge recipe-yield looks right to me- I made a half batch and am going to see if I can freeze rest- realize it might separate but maybe not. Thank you Kate for posting.
