I have no doubt this is delicous as is; I haven't made it yet but plan to make it for Thanksgiving. Has anyone ever tried it with mascarpone cheese? If so, do you recommend I substitute it ounce for ounce and would it it completely alter the taste of the dish or maybe just 'enhance' it (if that's possible:-) I just LOVE mascarpone cheese in desserts. Thanks!
best recipe ever, easy to make and when you bring it anywhere people think its beautiful and light to eat.
This recipe is not only gorgeous but absolitley delicious. I have made it several times using the apple juice.
