Yes, four and a half layers. Stephanie added a layer of chocolate curls and I changed its name. But the reason why I’m posting has nothing to do with the fact that she made this amazing gluten-free version for me (among others) to enjoy Saturday night. Well, it has a little bit to do with it because she sent the remaining two rows of luscious yumminess home with me to enjoy. Fast-forward to the next evening when I pull it out of the fridge and find a mere square left! I mean, sure, that’s a serving size, but not for a pregnant lady! So I bring the pan to Jas and ask him, in a way that I can now see wasn’t so wise (acting like the second part of Prov. 14:1 instead of the first – ugh), “Seriously? This is all you left me?!?” So, we had a little “discussion” for the next 10 minutes or so about gluten-free dessert-eating etiquette in our home. The climax of the conversation went something like this:

J: Just make more. It’s not that hard.

L: It’s not that easy!

J: Get me the recipe and buy the ingredients and I’ll make it tomorrow.

L: That’s part of the “not easy.” YOU get the recipe and ingredients! (not my finest moment)

J: Fine, I will.

Now, later that evening I had to ask forgiveness for being too self-focused and “fleshy” (Gal 5) and let Jason off the hook for making the dessert, insisting he not waste his time in an already jam-packed week. He had already acquired the recipe, however, and was determined to make it, and, figuring I’d argued enough the night before, I didn’t argue with him. I just enjoyed the fruit of his labor. And by fruit I mean creamy, chocolaty, graham-cracker goodness! I LOVE that there are gluten-free graham crackers and that they make this dessert sooooo good!
