Well, I have to tell you that I absolutely love this dessert.
It's French.
I like French.
I like dessert.
It is actually a classic French breakfast dish...or brunch.
But...also, can be a dessert as well.
I just wanted to say...
it is sweet
it is tart
it is dense
it is moist
it is very
very
very
easy to make.
You will love it.
You will like it.
You will lovey dovey like it spike it.
Okay, that just makes no sense at all!
LOL!
Anyhow, I really think you should try this recipe this summer.
All you need is a variety of summer berries...whatever you like.
Some flour, eggs, sugar, cornstarch, milk, melted butter, and powdered sugar.
Oh, and you need a blender.
I don't know why the blender.
But it just might be an important factor.
That's what the recipe said to use.
I questioned it.
I wondered about it.
I stopped wondering and stopped questioning.
I used the blender.
And got amazing results.
