Enjoy this Rich, Decadent Dessert Recipe...A Dark-Chocolate Extravaganza and a Maybelline Family, Favorite Holiday treat.

Taken directly from my Great Auntie Frances A. Williams, personal cookbook, this Chocolate Icebox Desert, takes you back to a time when the word diet wasn't a household word. 


This is actually quite funny.  Watch as I almost ruin my Great Auntie Frances recipe on Television and keep going.

The recipe is at the bottom of this web page.  It is truly out of this world, and nothing you can find anywhere.  Make it for Christmas, with crushed peppermint on top, for a festive, fun, unforgettable taste treat.
