This is one of those McNee family recipes that seemed to have gotten lost for a few years, but luckily it was found and now one of my family's favorites. I don't make it often enough so it is a welcomed treat at Thanksgiving. I promise to update the pictures this year.

*Note: Strawberries also work great.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Good grief, that stuff is beyond delicious! Thanks for reminding me of the recipe. I haven't made it in a long time. Great season to bring it back!
