    My neighbor makes these and they are fantastic! Dangerously delicious!! Fun for the Holidays get a group of friends or family together for a day and bake large batches for all to take home.Plus, you all have a great time together and get your baking done for gifts. When the baking is done have a nice lunch together. Our group of seven neighbors each take turns at their home and each recipe is different. We start the week before Thanksgiving, and have more time closer to Holiday time for other things. These freeze well.
