THIS RECIPE WAS TAKEN FROM MY GRANDMOTHERS EARLY 1900's RECIPE FILE. I LOVED IT GROWING UP AND STILL DO..BUT I HAVE TO MAKE IT MYSELF NOW. BOTH OF MY GRANDMOTHERS AND MY MOTHER HAVE PASSED AWAY. MAKING AND EATING THEIR RECIPES ARE A NICE COMFORT FOR ME. CinStraw

I found that this recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.
