  1. Hi Angela,

    I was looking for this recipe which was a family favorite in my childhood. I made a few substitutions to adapt it to my dietary constraints and it was quite successful. Thank you very much!

    My usual recipe says to boil for one minute. I followed this to a T and did boil for one minute. They were dry but still good.

    Thank you for this delicious recipe. I made it and they are GREAT!!! How far in advance do you think I can make them? Do you think they can be frozen? I made some on the 16th. Do you think they will store until Christmas? How would you store them to last 9 days? Thank you SO much!!!
