Another one of those old-time favorite family recipes that withstood the test of time. It's the keikis (children) that love this the most, they love to peel it layer by layer, and eat it, and yes, you can sometimes "catch" the adults from the corner of your eye doing that too! LOL! This recipe takes a little time to put together but when you see the end result, it's so eye catching and well worth it!!! Especially when everyone wants more than one piece and it is so yummy! It reminds me of a beautiful Hawaiian Rainbow over our lush green mountains when there's a misty rainfall. Here is the photo that I promised to change as soon as I made it.
