It sounds lovely! šŸ¤£ perhaps you could post just a wee slice at Easter time DL.
 
Itā€™s a fun recipe. Actually really easy - the subscribed to the ā€œdump and stirā€ method. You put all the ingredients in a bowl, stir well, and stick them in the crust and bake all day. Must be hand stirred though, beaters ruin the texture.

I brought it to work for easter last year.
 
Youā€™ll have to post the recipe for us. Hey, weā€™re all family here.šŸ™šŸ˜‡šŸ˜‹

Knowing the family recipe, I think it would be difficult to add anything to it successfully. Itā€™s a good old southern recipe from the days before anyone down South believed in ā€œwatching their waistline.ā€ Very, very few people can eat more than one smallish slice at a time.

Cheesecake or Pavlova? Cheesecake, I think. My southern relatives never care how much they weigh. They only care if the food tastes good. They are all wonderful cooks, whereas I donā€™t cook at all.
 
My relatives eventually had to care, a few heart attacks later. (Granted, the old southern tobacco habits didnā€™t help either.)

Strangely, there is no diabetes or heart disease in my family, on either side, so I hope Iā€™m not the first! Most of my relatives just wear out and die from old age (over 100). Two did just never wake from general anesthesia in the hospital, though, but one was 92 (uncle) and the other was 102 (grandmother). I have good genes, trying to make the most of them!

I suppose a lot of people gave up CAF for Lent instead of sweets. šŸ˜œ
I will take a plate of these to go and eat them tomorrow. Yeah, I am one of those, Sundayā€™s donā€™t count.

Haha! I grew up that way. In my teens, I actually would raid the cupboard at 12:01a.m.
