I got this recipe from the Kraft Kitchens, who I think got it from Sunset Foods. Very yummy—quite the crowd pleaser. Does take some time to make the various components. Very quick to put together once you have them made. And in a blatant plug for my former employer, go to kraftfoods.com to get really tasty, very easy recipes.
