So decadent and rich! 😋 yum! That equals great to me! It was probably enough for 2 people. I have a question: I didn’t have wrapped carmels, I used a spoon of Carmel sauce. The 2nd half was ooy-gooy. I didn’t know if it was not cooked enough, and I should put it back in the microwave, if it was from the liquid caramel, or if it was from ice cream on top that had melted down.?
