These were fabulous!!!! I used blackberry jam, because it's what I had on hand. The only thing I would change next time is to make them bigger!!! They all were gone in a matter of an hour. Between my 3 year old and his daddy, they were scarfed down..lol. Thanks for a great recipe. Not to mention so easy to make!

This sounded so good and so easy. Unfortunately, I had some difficulties preparing this (user error probably) and the taste was not what we expected. The dough came together fairly quickly, yet was sticky and a bit difficult to work with. I got 36 pockets, using 3 inch diameter rounds. It took 20-25 minutes of baking before they even began to brown. The end product seemed rather doughy with a strong butter taste. I think we expected something a bit crisper.
