Yummy! My sister came to visit and I made this as a special dessert. We ended up having it every night she was here - it was that good. I'll be making this one again and again.

I loved this recipe. My family enjoyed it. My husband even spoke to his co-workers and told them how delicious this was. What a warm treat on a cold night.

Absolutely wonderful. It's the perfect end to end dinner. Very classy looking when put on a plain black or plain white plate. The only thing that I would change is using pecans instead of peanuts.
