These were very tasty! I will be making them for Thanksgiving! We didn't put walnuts in them just personal tastes. But my husband really loved! I also didn't use the seperate spices but used pumpkin pie spice instead. Very simple to make though and they were a huge hit! Loved and will make again for sure! Made for FALL PAC 2008 -
my family has been making these for years there awsome -
I can't wait to try it!
