I was experimenting last night and made up this creation for my parents and Philip. My family said it didn't even taste gluten free and wholeheartedly gave their approval. I hope you enjoy this. It is wonderful that those of us with Celiac's or a gluten sensitivity can still enjoy dessert without having to suffer the consequences later. :-)
