I can't believe there is not a picture or comments from other posters, this was the cover recipe in 1997. I made lots of modifications including using prunes rather than carrots and tofutti cream cheese instead if Neufchatel cheese. Looked beautiful, tased great and was really pretty healthy for a dessert

This is one of my favorite recipes. I lost it and just found it today among my computer files (could not remember the title). I always made it for Father's Day and other special occasions. I will be making it for Derby Day this year instead of Derby Pie along with Hot Brown Sliders and Sweet Tea Mint Juleps.I do use the carrots and the Neufchatel cheese, but I do agree with Chef Amanda recipe needs a photo and I agree with her 5 stars.
