Needed a couple more minutes than indicated here - but declared delicious by all who tried them (especially the little kids) and you can really taste the honey. Thanks for this recipe!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I have been cooking from the time I was 12 years old. I was in a cooking compition for 4-H and I took home the Grand Campion Ribbon for the Junior division, I had made tropical fruit salad with cottage cheese. So I have been cooking ever since then. I am now teaching my children how to cook and read recipes.
