So Easy A Caveman Could Do It

As I flipped through past blog entries for some inspiration I came across Natalie's entry. I thought that’s brilliant. Recently in our layer bar unit I was searching for recipes when I stumbled across this one. Although I haven't had the chance to make this, I found it so interesting that it was a none bake threat. It's something more than general pudding or store bought ice cream; it shows that you put effort into the dessert even if it took hardly any time at all. This would be an easy and impressive dessert for anyone to make that’s essentially dummy proof. Enjoy!
