Enjoyed making these nice little tasties! This time around my other half & I ate them over several meals, & now I'd like to make them for my finger food counter when it's time for another of the monthly get togethers that I host! Looked like I went to a lot of work (which I didn't)! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed in New Kids on the Block tag)
