The hardest part of this recipe will be waiting for it to set in the chilled environment. Despite the robust ingredients, these are still delicate desserts that need to be fully chilled to be enjoyed. That being said, once they are all ready to go, dig in! These tasty treats won’t last long once you set them out. My kids were disappointed that they didn’t get any, so I see a new batch coming up in my future. Thanks against to Premeditated Leftovers for adding their yummy dessert to my go-to list of recipes.
