I liked this dish. Next time, I will use a wider pot, rather than the deeper one I used, to get more surface area on top. Then I will make the dumplings much smaller, which will result in more of them. The dumplings were too big and doughy for my taste. It also made the serving size pretty big! :) I'll be able to cut the serving size in half with smaller dumplings.

This was a great dessert. It was very easy to prepare and my family was really excited to find a gluten-free recipe that did not taste "gluten free". Thanks.
