This recipe was a big hit. DH told me to remove the plate in front of him cause he would ate them all LOL And I made half the recipe. I didn't use garlic salt, so I used just a hint of garlic powder. Thanks Lainey :) Made for Holiday tag

I made exactly as directed and they are indeed yummy little snacks! I think I'll add some chopped green onion next time for a little added flavor. Thanks Lainey!

I followed the recipe exactly as the instructions say, and the mixture ended up like a runny batter. I knew this wouldn't hold up as teaspoons on the baking pan, and I was right. I even tried to refrigerate the mixture to make it more like a dough before I baked the second batch, and that still didn't work. The flavor was good, but the consistency was not as it should have been. I was concerned about adding too much extra flour to thicken it up, because I didn't want to lose the flavor. If anyone else has tried this recipe, do you have any tips for me?
