I choose to make these out of all the honey biscuits for the fact it has a vegetable in it, which is always good for you! These were yummy even before they were baked in the oven Although expected them to be more crunchyonce done, Still yummy though. I didnt know how to cut the mix with the knives so i rubbed the mixture with my hands & also substituted the creamed honey for regular honey as we'd just bought a big bucket from our local honey man TY for this recipe Julesong my 1 year old will love these!Reply
