    I loved this triffle. Wasn’t sure if I would when I was making it but one bite was enough. Creamy and flavorful. I don’t like pecan pie by itself but it was great made this way

    I brought this to a pot luck last night, it was gone quickly. Very tasty, and I received many compliments on this dish.
