I enjoyed making these very tasty treats! It took a little while to convert everything into units/measurements that I could handle, but I had fun with that part, too! Great, great warm temperature treats for the sweet tooth ~ really liked the combo of carrot & apricot, with the hint of almond! Thanks so much for sharing your recipe!
