My new favorite recipe....

YES, I do have a favorite recipe. I have made this twice now in the last week and it is addictive. And to top it is off it is super easy to make, and very healthy. It tastes like the inside of a pumpkin pie. The consistency is sort of like flan, so have a spoon handy.

Now that I know how it is supposed to turn our according to the recipe, my goal is to try and tweak it a little and replace out the milk with almond milk and also to add some protein powder into it.

But as is it is a great treat and everyone who has been to my house and tried it loves it. I don't put the raisins in it (they are gummy food which I hate *smile*).

Thanks Paige for sharing!
