Excellent Recipe!November 28, 2008By mommaliesel
"I made this recipe exactly as written only I baked it with pecans on top and then toasted the marsh-mellows as directed at the end of the baking process. It was very sweet and I may back off on the sugar next time (trying 1/2 cup maybe.) I used Maker's Mark bourbon. The pecans added a wonderful flavor reminiscent of pecan pie and though it seems like such a small amount of cinnamon and allspice that the recipe calls for, it was perfect. I also did this dairy free using rice milk instead of cow's milk. I baked this in a 13x9 casserole and it took at least 45 min to bake. I'll be making this one often! It was a huge hit."
