Delicious! This is one of those desserts that you might order in a resturant after a nice meal and you're already stuffed so you order one just to share...but you can't quit eating it! It is so creamy and rich and just darn right delicious! The cinnamon gives it that "little extra something special" and I guarantee this is company worthy! And...did I mention very EASY to make which is a huge plus in my book! Made for Fall 09 PAC, and so glad I did!
