10 teenagers arrived for a video at 8 PM. I put these out around 8:10. At 8:25 my daughter asked me if I had made any more. I had to disappoint her friends. The next day 3 mothers called and asked for the recipe. This says 36 servings, but if you are feeding teens, it's more like 5 servings, maybe! Thanks for making me a very popular mom, Bert!

Very good and easy to make. I cooked the filling for the full five minutes. At the end the butter started to separate but I feel it turned out fine. I've had to give this recipe to several people.

These are great. I took them to work. They were all eaten in 10 mintues. Everyone wanted me to go back home and make some more. Thanks Bert!
