I halved this recipe, omitted the brown sugar and added 8oz of sauteed mushrooms. I drained fire roasted diced tomatoes very well in a colander before adding. It was quite good and I'd make again. It would be a good company dish.

I'm so sorry, I did not like this dish. will not be making it again and will probably have to throw the remaining away. I usually love all your recipes. I'm not sure what went wrong.

We liked this but found the brown sugar to be very overpowering. Perhaps I packed it in too tightly. Next time I'm going to back off on that. I feel like it could have used more tomatoes as well, so I'll increase that next time. I didn't have the full amount of heavy cream, so supplemented it with whole milk and it seemed fine. Since I cut the recipe in half, I put it in the oven for 20 minutes, but found that the outer edges were getting brown and the middle was still very gooey. I put aluminum foil over top and put it back in for about 9 minutes. I think that was a good done-ness. Overall, I'd try this recipe again, but I'd change a few things to make it more tasty for us.Update: I tried making this again tonight, but for some reason it would NOT set. It was just mush. I cooked it for an hour and it was still quite mushy. I have no idea what went wrong. It's not my oven because I made dessert in it afterwards and that turned out fine.

Delicious! The only things I did different were not to use the green onions (we don't care for them) and then use part heavy cream and part milk because I was using up some leftover cream I had

Made this for my family as well as a church event, substituting the cream for fat-free half and half and everyone loved it!

This has a perfect mixture of flavors. The first time I made it, immediatly after I took my first bite, I knew I would be making it again. It is one of my favorite recipes :)
