I do not remember where I got this recipe, but I do remember the first time I made them! I was like 10 or 12 years old and made them for a potluck dinner to welcome our new pastor. The pastor's wife was SO impressed with them and wanted to know who made them! She couldn't believe it was a kid!!!! Just goes to show anyone can cook....you just have to want to do it!
