  1. How completely heavenly!! These were loved and devoured in quick order and comments were in the order of... "a FIVE!!" and "I could eat those again!!" Just so easy to make. I did not have a proper jelly roll pan so the ones in the photo are thicker than they should be but that did not alter the delicious flavor! We will be making these again and I've already been asked to share your recipe. (-; Made for Pick A Chef, 2010.
     
  2. Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup. I made these for a carry-in at work and they were a big hit! Several people wanted the recipe and I was glad to share. I did all additional powdered sugar to the frosting as I like a thicker frosting instead of a glaze. Was also able to make these gluten free by using my favorite gluten free flour and also adding 1 T of ground flax seed. Thanks for posting this recipe Crazy!

  4. these were great. THey have a lot of flavor and are very light. I think they'd be great for an on-the-go snack.We didn't have raisins, but they were still great.
