I got this from Lorraine and made it for dessert the other day. Marilee took the remaining half of it to work 'cause she was afraid she'd eat the rest of it. Everyone loved it. I didn't dust it with powdered sugar 'cause in my opinion someone makes a really good dessert and then ruins it by putting the extra sugar on it. With this dessert it really wasn't necessary...IMO.
