I made this for the first time and it came out great. I will be making more later this week to go in the christmas hampers. I used my deli slicer to cut them 4mm thick, wasn't sure if they could go thinner and didn't want to risk ruining them. I may try with a few in my next batch. I cooked them the second time for about 35 minutes, though I may cook for less next time as they got a bit of colour. Thanks for posting this easy recipe.
