When I was a kid Nesselrode Pie was standard holiday fare in our family. Whether we enjoyed Christmas dinner at home or at my aunts house Nesselrode Pie was always the highlight of the dessert table. Now chances are you have never even heard of this scruptious confection. As the article in the wiki explains this dessert is all but extinct now. I can't imagine why. It looks fabulous and tastes even better! You will find the recipe in the wiki as well. I urge you to take a look and if it sounds appealing give it a try. Now it does take a couple of hours to make but trust me this is one dessert that is well worth your time and effort. Your guests will sing your praises and this may well become a holiday tradtion in your family! Go ahead...give it a try. Happy holidays! Very highly recommended!

I checked out the wiki as you suggested and it sounds like an amazing dessert. The ingredients and end result sound almost like a tiramisu, minus the espresso and marscopone. I can't imagine how something so tasty could go extinct either! Thanks so much for sharing, Paul. I loved reading about the Nesselrode pie! :)
