More Recipes For You To Enjoy:I received a Betty Crocker Cook book for a wedding present in 1967. This recipe was in that cook book and I loved that recipe. I gave the cook book to my son while he was in college and along the way he lost it. The recipe has been lost to me until I “googled” it tonight. Thank you for having it.
This is an old favorite from back in the day, at least fifty years ago. A specialty for my children on their birthday,both then and now! Try it… easy and wonderful!
