There was just not enough flavor for me. Maybe ginger would have helped?

I have made these many times. They are always a hit. I now have to double the recipe because 25-30 are never enough. The taste is incredible despite the few ingredients. One make ahead hint: Assemble these on a cookie sheet using parchment paper between layers, freeze THEN put in a freezer bag. When ready to eat, pull them out onto a cookie sheet to dethaw. They stick together very easily so just make sure they have space before they are frozen and after when they are defrosting.

I added a little ginger to this recipe. My family really enjoyed them. Thanks for the recipe.
