I am trying to find the recipe to the picture above and cannot find it. Could you please send it to me? It's right beside the gooey Butter Cake. It looks like it has snicker candy bars on the top.

Hey Mrs. Paula, my family is from the South also we originated from Emmons SC, Asheville NC, Spartanburge so we know gooood cooking. Lady You are the icing on any cake. I love U Ms. PAULA. I know Dr,Oz is trying to convert U but stay true to yourself. God will take care of the rest., whatever we do it should be taken in moderation. Thast's what the good book says. So a little guilty pleasure has not put on pounds. It's when we over do the good things you show us how to cook, and over eat those wonder delightful dishes. kEEP USING YOUR GIFT TO BRING GOD GLORY AND PEOPLE PLEASURE. YOUR SISTER IN MY HEAD CARLA
