Sound like breakfast to me Becky:D
 
A host made that for a brunch show a few weeks ago, and I'm making it for this Saturday's show. I didn't eat it so I don't know how it tastes.
 
I made it once (well, I tried to make it that is). I don't know what I did wrong but it was a gummy gooey mess. The top part did taste good though.
 
It's delicious! I made it last year for a vendor event.

I had the same problem... I attempted to make it for Thanksgiving this past year, but it was completey inedible!!
