These are so addicting and easy to make!! Made for my holiday trays and will be a new addition every year!! Made for Lets P-A-R-T-Y ~2010. -
Made these for Memorial Day weekend for my grandkids. I started them the day before because of waiting time, (which was the hardest part for me, hehe) and they were yummy! Rich and creamy! They really are easy to make and well worth trying!
