Church Desert...

I phoned home tonight and spoke with my parents who were puttering about doing random things. My mom mentioned that dad was making a desert for an upcoming church dinner. I asked what he's making and he said "Sex in a Pan". I couldn't imagine bringing that to a Church of England Bring and Share. I'd forgotten all about it though, so for those of you who have as well, please indulge yourself (recipe courtesy of about.com and picture randomly found on a very yummy looking blog called Jam on Your Face which I encourage you to check out. I tried emailing to ask for permission to plop it here, but it wouldn't accept my comment...I didn't see any copyright information so I hope it's OK)
