Jenn,

this recipe I got out of our local newspaper recipe request column a few years ago--very handy recipe as it uses only ingredients most people have in their "pantries"-I've added sliced apples on occasion-as a bottom layer--but I like it best without the apples-just a plain tasty dessert ( also makes a great breakfast LOL ).
