"This is a great fall recipe. I usually make it around October/November as a holiday treat. I get requests each year to make them for friends. I found it in a newstand magazine called "Cookies from the Heart" by Gold Medal/Betty Crocker."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>Just moved with my family to Spokane after living in Pacific Northwest for over 20 years. Getting adjusted to new things and work most of the time these days. Most of the recipes I obtain are from magazines, newsstand cookbooks, and of course from home. I use to work in a bookstore and on my break I'd often be thumbing through cookbooks looking for desserts to try.</p>
