I had been looking for this recipe. This came out great. Thanks -
This was very enjoyable. I have a recipe similar in my recipes, but it doesnt use only water... it is cream-based. This was a nice change from that, but I will admit that I prefer the cream-based version. This is very very sweet, and rich :-) I will definitely make this again as my husband loves these types of desserts!

Love to cook. Cook lunch and dinner every day but really love it when we have guests for lunch or dinner. When I have guests, I allow myself to prepare a 3 or four course meal , not otherwise :).
