Blackmoons image

My mom was a newlywed in the 1950s when she found this recipe. It's been my favorite dessert as long as I can remember. Since I've never seen the exact recipe anywhere else, I have copies stashed all over the place so I never lose it. I usually increase all the filling ingredients by half to have more of it. I've never counted the number of blackmoons this makes so I'm just guessing.
