 Doll (Wisconsin) says:
I asked my sister to make this for Easter desert this year. She didn't grease/flour the pan, just lined it with parchment. Made removal easier! And we used our own ganache recipe for the chocolate frosting. But this was GREAT! DEVOURED. Way, way better than that old graham cracker/pudding stuff! I'm glad I stumbled across this recipe - it's a keeper!
