Family loved these, and they were pretty easy to make (I always have trouble rolling things up). I omitted the cardamom and increased the cinnamon to 1 Tablespoon because I know we love cinnamon! One reason I tried this recipe is that it made a small batch; however, I did get 8 out of it. Used a powdered sugar glaze lightly. Very likely to make again. Thanks for posting.
