“I cannot believe I finally found this recipe! My grandma would make these for holiday parties when I was a girl and I would sneak as many as I could without being discovered. A true guilty pleasure and my heart is so happy to be able to make them again. I definitely hadn’t forgotten how tasty they were!” Must express something to keep getting my recipes… Thank you.
