another version of the traditional recipe. I incorporated some chopped walnuts into the bottom layer this fourth dimension unopen to for some extra texture in addition to nutty goodness.
Never heed the guilt, every bit that volition spoil the enjoyment of this custardy, chocolate sense that admittedly actually ought to live served exclusively on especial occasions.
