This dessert must be one of the easiest desserts that I have ever made, and it taste delicious. To be honest I took the easy way out, I did not want to spend time Baking a pound cake that would have taken at least 2 hours to make, with the preparation and baking time.
These days with working from home, where I am constantly near my kitchen, I wanted to make something that would be easy in and easy out. So, I decided to take this short cut to get the same result as a timelier method. No judgement please, see the recipe below I think you will like this, try it for yourself and let me know in the comment box below.
