These are wonderful!! DD and I stirred these up last night and baked them this morning. We follow the instructions exactly and although the dough was sticky when we put it in the refrigerator, it was perfect for rolling when we took it out to work with it. They baked up very light and fluffy and have just the right sweetness too - perfect for a breakfast treat of with afternoon coffee. We'll make these again and again. Thanks pines506!

OK lets see...My name is Diane and I'm married to a wonderful guy -- going on 20 years. We have 2 kids -- 1 daughter and 1 son a 70lb german shepard, a fat cat and a very snobby cat! I work a couple of days a week in the Loop and the rest of my time is spent sitting at the kids sporting events. I love to try new recipes. Luckily, hubby will try just about anything. The kids aren't so eager about that, but are generally very good sports about it!
