With summer just around the corner, I thought I'd share one of my favorite dessert recipes with you. Maybe you've tried it, maybe you haven't. Either way, it's a win, win dessert.

My friend Mary asked if I had this particular recipe and it made me realize how excited I was for summer and BBQ's and desserts and late night lounging with no schedule.

 Ahhhh.......  I can't wait! So..... here it is, in all it's glory. Probably one of the best summer dessert recipes I've tried. It's always a hit. Hope you'll try it! 

Happy Summer!
