I made this for two, but holy cow, it was rich. There's enough sweet, rich, sexiness here to easily serve 4 (but that might compromise the "sexy" factor... depending on what you like!) The only thing my blender did in this recipe was get dirty. After realizing that blending was not going to occur in step 4, I poured everything back into a bowl and used my electric mixers instead (as well as for any "whisking" step) and everything worked out delightfully. I will make this again... and again... and again... :) -
Fantastic!! Do not change it. This is the best desert I have ever made. Thank you a million times.
