Silver Cloud Standby Dessert
If you’re like me, you do have a sweet tooth. If you’re like me, you do need to save money. I like to make this showstopper dessert to serve at parties, but more importantly to put aside in the refrigerator and eat for desserts, for snacks, for whenever. It’s delicious. It’s completely legal on the diet. And it’s glamorous to look at.
