1/3/2010 03:12:07 PM Report AbuseI first made this for T. giving this year and it was excellent and not too sweet like some recipes. I then made it again for a work party and it disappeared instantaneously. I will be making it for the 3rd time for Christmas dinner. It is so easy to make. I did use more maple syrup than what is called for.
