This recipe idea is one of many reasons I enjoy this site. A simple idea that sounds delish, and is something I can make tonight. I enjoy the simplicity of these recipes and it helps that I almost always have the needed ingredients on hand. If I don't I can read ideas from others for easy substitutions. Thanks Mr. Food Test Kitchen!

Nice and easy and looks yummy. Chopped nuts (maybe even toasted) on top of whipped cream would really finish this off.
