Oh my gosh!!! These are amazing! I am obsessed with cinnamon and try every recipe with it included. I didn't have karo syrup, so I just added more honey. They were wonderful, but next time I'll make fewer because the temptation is too great! Oh, and I made the orange frosting instead- really complemented the honey. Thanks for a great recipe!
