Your recipe sounds so good, I was going to make it, Well you say to add soft butter, But you don't say how much. Bob

I served a welfare mission for my church in El Salvador. I came home VERY sick. I couldn't eat much of what I liked for years and years. Physically, I'm better now, but I'm picky. If it doesn't taste good, I don't make it twice.
