Add in flour and mix MIX LIGHTLY with a METAL SPOON.

This really is a lovely dessert. The taste is just divine in my opinion. It's uncomplicated which is rare in most desserts. I sure hope you try this one out. I sure am glad I did. Toodles and smoochies. xx

If you like visual books it's for you. They also have another one "frame>by>frame cooking". I haven't bought that one yet but plan to.
Thanks Andrea. It is so yummy and simple. I think it would be good with berries or dare I go to the bad place and say chocolate drizzled over it. Lol!
