Sorry, no pics today, just a great recipe!! I got the basic recipe from allrecipes.com, but made a few changes, based on the suggestions and on my grandmother's advice. The rule around here is follow Mamaw's advice!! My mom baked this for me (I ran out of time) and we served it alongside the chili at the costume party. This is a long way from a healthy recipe, but it met with rave reviews, so this is going in my permanent file. Mom made this is a 9x13 baking dish and doubled the recipe; she said the baking time was much longer than 30 minutes due to all the moisture in the bread. It was left to rest a few hours until the party and was delicious. It was even better the next day!
