Notes
Nutrition
Guys. I ate so many of these. It’s sad, but I don’t even feel guilty about it. That is how you know a dessert stands the test of time… when it is worth all the calories!
Also, milk might as well be on the ingredient list, because a cool glass of milk is pretty much a necessity with these babies!
Nom, nom, nom.
Happy eating loves!
