Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This recipe was in a Junior League Cookbook given to me by my wonderful friend, Barbara Alfond, about 40 years ago. In March, I mentioned to Barbara I was bringing White Velvet to a friend who was sick. Ironically, Barbara told me she had been thinking about White Velvet and couldn't remember where the recipe was from so many years ago! We had a good laugh. But now, when I look back on that conversation, it's hard to believe that so many months have gone by, and I am making this soothing dessert just for us, for comfort - during what is described as the worst surge of the pandemic.
