    Sounds delish, thanks!

    There are 16 T. in 1 cup, so if the recipe makes 4 1/2 cups then a serving size would be 1 T. ((4.5x16=72))

    Who could only eat 1 serving of this! Yum.

    yeah i think 1 or 2 tablespoons is a serving which makes sense when your at a get together but if you have it at home for yourself... well then there's no way i can only eat 2 tablespoons!
