Much too often, I’m a day late and a dollar short. In this case, I’m about nine days late. That said, better late than never, right? Today’s recipe is about as easy as it comes, is light but filling, and sweetly tart and creamy. That’s a winning combination for me!

DJ Collier may have left the US Marshals Service but she’s still in law enforcement. And while she might have led a busy life with crazy hours, she managed to keep herself fed and just with take out. She’s a big fan of this dessert and happily introducted the other Moonstruck mates to it. Her mate, Antoine Fontaine grew up the Louisiana bayous, more wolf than man. While very much a carnivore, he’s been known to walk through the kitchen and swipe a ramekin. Their story starts in BLUE MOON but they also figure largely in CHRISTMAS MOON and MOONS SHOT.
