My grandkids love helping me in the kitchen, especially during the holidays when they stay overnight. This recipe is perfect for having the kids help. They love to eat them and take some home for Mom and Dad. These can also be rolled in ground nuts or dipped in chocolate. — Lorraine Caland, Shuniah, Ontario
