This recipe is not chocolate...it instead comes from Hershey Park's Restaurant (in PA). There is, of course,, a story behind this....Mom was a chef quality cook. She could come up with a recipe with just ingredient ideas and make a meal...which didn't help trying to interpret some of her recipes in her binder since she also neglected to name them or give directions often. This time when my parents were vacationing in PA, they were eating at the restaurant and Mom complimented the chef (through the waiter who went to share) on this dish. He took her into the kitchen, and shared his recipe!
