"I have no idea where this recipe originally came from. It's one of those strange concoctions that you try to describe to people and, well, they just never understand... until they TASTE it. This is a family recipe my great grandmother - aka Granny - used to make for my cousins and me. It is the ultimate comfort food and I rarely make it because I can't stop eating it!"

Sorry I couldn't give this more stars, but the taste didn't really work for us. Tasted sort of bland to us. Maybe too many tastes trying to come thru. This is only IMO, Icedcacti. Thnx for sharing, though. Made for New Kids on the Block.
