Larry and I LOVE this cake.
I make it and after 6 hours, I unmold it, and cut into 12 slices,
and then wrap them separately in foil and return them to the freezer.
Enjoying them as individual servings is best for us,
but this is perfect for a dinner party also.
We top our servings with
to make it a healthy choice.
Secret: Larry likes his cake to set out one hour
before enjoying it.
It is melty and wonderful....

Happy Saturday!
