This recipe was given to me by my dearest friend. Helen, she’s a gem of a woman. Anyone who has ever sat down at her kitchen table for a meal knows how special she makes you feel. More than delicious food, there’s a story she will share with you, and a cool table setting. It’s an event. Relaxed and luxurious all at once. 

We live in different states and meals shared together are few and far between. But Helen is the type of friend you can talk on the phone to for hours. She mails cards. Actual greeting cards with great words of wisdom and funny quotes. This recipe for the glaze is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to joy she has shared with me in my life!
