Our calendar always fills up fast with potlucks and picnics to see family and friends and this is a dessert that they look forward to every year. If you're lucky enough to have one or two left, try warming up a piece in the microwave and topping it with vanilla ice cream. -Jennifer Pelzel, Spring Valley, Wisconsin
