The Chocolate Yummy is a Cajun country dessert that has roots in the same family as Jell-O salad with canned fruit, Nilla wafers with banana pudding, or any recipe that starts with a container of Cool Whip. In Real Cajun, Donald Link has updated his aunt's recipe by replacing pudding mix with homemade pudding, the store-bought chocolate cookies with pecan shortbread, and real whipped cream instead of Cool Whip. This dessert is great for hot days and barbecues, and best when made in advance and left to cool in the fridge overnight.
As always with our Cook the Book feature, we have a few copies of Real Cajun to give away-five this week.
