Nut Mallo Goodies Recipe

Nut Mallow Goodies

In 1998 my husband, Mike and myself had gone to the First Greco Family Picnic (they have it every 5 years).  Over the next few months, Diane Randesi (one of the children of the Greco clan) had put together a cookbook that everyone who attended the picnic (about 100 people or more) contributed recipe to the cookbook.

My mother-in-law, Marie Shea, made the Strawberry Shortcut Cake Recipe back in 1986.  I can remember having this cake after a Saturday night meal.  It was very different, but it was a “Shea” recipe, so it had to be good, and it was.
