Made these for our Friday night get together with some neighbors and they received rave reviews. These little goodies are soooooo good. They take a little time to prepare, but they are worth every second. I used my teflon griddle , sprayed it with Pam and used very little oil. Next time I am going to try them on a cookie sheet and spraying them with my Pampered Chef oil sprayer and baking them.....anything to cut down on the fat and calories. Thanks Mercy for a delicious keeper.
