Well in my head, yours always look perfect!
These sound good...so I'm wondering how many the recipe makes?
I made 9 dozen the other day so I don't have to make them again for Christmas. I made them for both my girls weddings. I am not sure where I got the original recipe from as I have been making them as long as I can remember for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Karen
The recipe makes 3 dozen. I make them in my stand kitchenaid making 1 1/2 batches twice. I remember bringing them to K*l**l*'s when Si was still alive and that was over 22 years ago.
Those look good Anne. I might have to make them instead of my bread machine rolls sometime.
Oooh! I'm glad you posted these. Michelle made them our first thanksgiving here. They were really good. I am pleasantly surprised to see the recipe! I always wondered how you make them. Thanks.
I'm trying them tonight, and they are so easy using a kitchenaid! I also tried your brownie recipe and the Meatball Deep Dish. I didn't make the crust for it though, and I loved it! Thanks! It's fun to try new things. I might try the My Pie Pizza soon. My mozzarella doesn't stick around long enough for me to make something. Carl tries...he brought it to me a couple times "for pizza pie"? He doesn't like melted cheese as much though.
