PERSONAL NOTE from U. Taylor - folks I've made this one and left it
plain - it was delicious - am thinking there are other possiblities for
decorations depending on holidays - for Easter - tint SF coconut - use as
grass and put SF jelly beans and maybe a SF chocolate bunny. Also noticed
that the crust was very dry so added a little more margarine....

Servings: 16

“Food for all is a necessity. Food should not be a merchandise, to be bought and sold as jewels are bought and sold by those who have the money to buy. Food is a human necessity, like water and air, it should be available.”

~ Pearl Buck (1892-1973) American Nobel Prize winning author.
