Notes

  • This recipe doesn’t make a ton, so I always double it.
  • Feel free to add in anything you want. I think coconut would be absolutely delicious in this, in fact I can’t believe I didn’t add any in.  You really can throw in whatever you would like, it’s completely up to your taste buds. . . Craisins, coconut, dried cherries, raisins, chocolate chips, etc.
