"Th directions are a little confusing but the concept is so beautifully simple that it really doesn't matter. I made it with sourdough crumbs and it was delicious. Also, I tried a diabetic-friendly version using a very small amount of topping (about 1/3 cup) and Splenda on the inside. Very successful and it is nice to be able to offer everyone a dessert. If you are diabetic you probably don't want to eat a huge bowl, but a reasonable serving is not so bad. I liked the custard suggestion, too."
