Although I say I’m not a big dessert person, green stuff is the exception to that particular rule. I’m sure this recipe has a real name, but I couldn’t tell you what it is. I’ve been enjoying Green Stuff since my childhood and I can always count on Mom to bring some for our holiday meals. Personally I like it better without nuts, but it is clear I am in the minority on this count. Green Stuff is a light, fluffy, bright green addition to any holiday table. I’m sure you will enjoy it as much as I do.
