I have looked all over for this old family favorite. We used to make it for Christmas gifts and it went all over the country. It is a wonderful treat to have and we keep the pot going for a long time. Can't wait to get started on one. It has been at least 30 years since we had this. Thank you so much for it.I've cooked/tasted this recipe!
