These were so amazingly deliciously good!!  I devoured them.  No, not a good thing, so maybe I shouldn't make them so then I won't be such a pig!!  They are the best fresh and warm, but they are still good later, but best warmed in the microwave for a bit if you have them later.  Everyone LOVED them.  You should most definitely try them!! 

Link up your recipes and review below.

Tomorrow and Friday I have finals and I need to study and finish some projects, so I better get going . . .  Have a great day!!
