  1. i used half & half rather than whole milk and it's really quite tasty. if you eat it right away, it pretty much tastes like chocolate soft-serve. not sure how it will be after it freezes/hardens. definitely easy enough to make though!
     
  2. I am so glad to be the first reviewer for this yummy recipe - AND Susan's first review EVER! I didn't have any evap milk on hand so I used half & half, still came out great! Easy to make and this is definitely a regular dessert now at our house. I served this with Lee Lee's Famous Chocolate Sauce(recipe #19678)and the combo was unbelievable! Great recipe, Susan. Welcome to 'Zaar!

I work full-time outside the home and work full-time inside the home keeping up with husband and 3 daughters (ages 13 - 21). I love to cook but have to use recipes that take less time now that life is sooo busy! I love having those days when I don't have much else planned and can just cook and bake all day! My family and I have gone on several mission trips over the past few years, and we've been blessed for one or all of us to get to go to India, Africa, Equador, and El Salvador as well. These trips are always great opportunities to get to try some interesting foods - some good and some not so good :-) <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
