Notes: Just to give you a brief background on how this came to be, when one of my friends' mom died, he had the task of cleaning out the attic. He found this Campbell Soup recipe book from the 1960s in pristine condition. Since my friend and I have mischievous minds, we decided that we would gather some of our unsuspecting friends and host them for dinner using recipes from the book, particularly the dessert section. We had to modify a bit but as you can imagine, we got a lot of giggles whenever compliments were given regarding the desserts.
