I have made this recipe every Lent for the past twenty years and have never been disappointed.
I got it from one of my neighbors in Brunswick, Maine when we were stationed there in the late 80's. Hence why it's called "NWC" for "Navy Wives Club". It is very simple to make and really hits the spot on a cold damp day.
Bon Appetite!
