Notes: This recipe came to me from my mother, Mae Schuckers. In the LCA there was a Town and Country Ministry and she served as their treasurer/bookkeeper even through to the ELCA beginning and then it was phased-out, but during her time of serving she would invite the Board and the Intern Pastors to the farm for a lunch each year and this was a dessert she often served.
