delicious! instead of whipping cream i just topped each square with vanilla ice cream, we loved this simple to bake dessert. -
As low-fat desserts go, this spicy, medium-golden gingerbread was quite good - it was pretty good, period.

My name is Teresa, and I live in Lake Worth, Florida. I've been away from Zaar for a few years now..time sure flew! Lots has changed...some for the better, some not so much. I'm single again, and my cat, Stetson, passed away. Hopefully, I'll be around more and get back into the swing of things..I missed you guys!
