Incredible!!!February 06, 2009By Bandit494
"I made this for our Booster Club snack bar at school for a basketball game. It was incredible! The referee asked me to marry him! I added the full amount of half & half, but did add about 1/3 of a cup mashed potato flakes (give or take a little) to thicken. I also added a good amount of pepper. It sat for a few days as the 1st game I made it for was cancelled. It got rave reviews! Will make again for sure! =)"
