"This is a Margaret Fulton recipe and has been a family favourite for over 30 years. The original called for walnuts (I have never used) so have made that a footnote in the directions. Serve with whipped cream and/or ice cream. A comfort dessert."

Delicious. I made one change. I don't keep instant coffee, so instead of adding it to the dry ingredients, I used hot brewed coffe as the liquid in the sauce ingredients. Was going to try it with the walnuts but forgot to use them. Next time :)
