This recipe is over 75 years old. My Grandmother would cook this for us when we would come visit. When she passed, we were afraid it was lost as it was a recipe she cut out of a newspaper. Then one day, I was looking through an old cookbook I got from her and THERE IT WAS!! My sister and I were so happy!!
The photo below is a copy of the recipe with her alterations.
