Notes

This is a large quantity for a big party and could easily be cut in half, or even down to a third for a smaller party. However, leftovers store and reheat well and it’s awesome thinned with milk and served over poached eggs like a hollandaise sauce. Or served as dessert, with Brandy or dessert wine. Just sayin’.
