No use the good stuff cuz the taste is part of the punch.

No juice. Once you've made the real thing, you can play around, but this is
a classic and it keeps, precisely because it has balanced oil and moisture.
Women make those and they last and last, the tag ends are sometimes used
instead of savoiardi for tiramisu.

This is a small recipe which I cook in a bundt pan, but tou can use a
cheesecake pan with the tube insert, too. Some of these are enormous,
10-14" in diameter and weighing in at pounds. Big families, lots of
breakfasts. Snacks. Hidden gobbles.
