1 small can Mandarin orange sections


2 cups marshmallow miniatures


DRAIN WELL


WHIP 1 pt carton of whipping cream

Simmer until firm and stir in a handful of shredded cheese then pat of real butter per serving and lastly a twist from the peppermill per serving. Serve on top of sunny side up egg. Garnish with crumbled bacon.
