These were tasty! I'm not sure if I did the 'rolling' right, but mine were like little purses or envelopes. I followed other reviewers who used Pam, but, may try the butter next time. I also sprinkled with some vanilla sugar, which I happened to hve on hand. Mine did not crisp up the way I would have liked, but that may have been my fault. I will make them again, as they are unlike any I've had before! Thanks for sharing, ~Nimz~! Made for ZWT 6.

The taste of the filling is so good. I thought I had apricot jam but didn't. So I used apple jelly. I used only cinnamon (didn't use nutmeg and apple pie spice). But I added a lot of cinnamon since I love the taste. I had a little bit of trouble rolling it. In fact I did them like egg rolls. But it was my first time working with egg roll wrap. I sprayed them with buttered flavor PAM. They were crispy after 4 minutes. The thing I didn't like is that under they're a bit too moist. I would like them to be crisp both sides. Maybe it would be great to cook them on baking racks on a baking pan. Or flip them after 2 minutes. Thanks Nimz. Made for Zaar Star Game

The filling for this dessert has a wonderful taste. I served it with Pecan Praline Topping on the side. We think next time we might use the filling on puff pastry for turnovers. This is also very easy to make for a quick snack. Thanks for posting.
