went a little photo crazy on these babies but they just look so good. yummers. anyways this recipe comes from the blog TheCulturalDish. found it through foodbuzz (highly recommend checking it out). went through the recipe and comments and looked pretty fricken delicious. some minor changes i had to make: used an orange instead of a lemon, had no brown sugar so substituted for more white sugar and added 2 tbs. of molasses and took them out ten min early. oh and i'd use smaller ramekins next time because 1 pint of berries doesn't go that far. but easy and a perfect summer treat!
