Additional information:
I got this recipe from my friend, Peyton, a fellow-med student. He lives down the hall from my husband in Minnesota. Since the hubs is vegan, all the yummy baking I do cannot be shared with him, so I always share it with "the boys down the hall," as they have affectionately come to be known. This recipe, though, Peyton shared with me, and I couldn't be more happy with it!
