TURTLE CAKE

Saturday night the Tasty Bunch enjoyed a delicious meal at The Reserve on Jefferson in Kearney. Friends Carol and Keith were our hosts. I was just at their house two days before as Carol was our hostess for Mexican Train. She served us this scrumptious Pumpkin Cheesecake Bars. She said she had three pieces left. It was really good. If you missed it, check it out here.

Anyway, for Tasty Bunch she made this "to-die-for" Turtle Cake. She had told us all about it on Thursday so I was eagerly awaiting dessert all day. She served the cake with a dollop of whipped topping and also a scoop of Turtle ice cream. I shouldn't have, but I couldn't help it...I ate the whole piece of cake and the scoop of ice cream.
