  1. excellent and forgiving recipe! I didnt have quite enough biscuits, so I added a few gingernuts:) I used butter instead of margerine, but I would cut down a little in future. didnt last long, should have hidden them.
     
  2. I won't give this any stars - at least not yet. For some reason, this dessert never set when I made it, so I could never cut it into biscuits. The stuff tasted delicious, though! I really can't imagine what I did wrong, but it must have been my fault, as all the other reviewer rated it 5 stars. I will try your recipe sometime in the future again, Katia.
     
  3. Great easy recipe; thanks Katia. I used graham wafers and Egg Creation(subtitute for eggs)an it did the job.Thnanks for sharing.
     
  4. I was very popular at my home today, thanks to this recipe. I make the exact same thing, only we call it 'mosaiko' (as it is a mosaic of chocolate, cookies and nuts). Delicious. I expect we'll have finished this by tomorrow at the rate we're eating it. :-)
     
  5. I agree with bluemoon, this is a great recipe. I used graham crackers and had to convert from grams to US measurements, so I did have to do a little adjusting on the ingredients, but that is not uncommon when converting measurements. I did temper my eggs before adding all together, then whisk well to make sure that it all blended well. I spooned onto the paper and rolled into a log, then let it cool a little, pulled it out and shaped it a little better. These are really great little cookies. Thanks for the great recipe.
