    Been making these for a while now and they’re amazing! Instead of icing I sometimes melt chocolate on top or even add chocolate bits into the batter and bake them, they turn out so great!

    I tried this recipe and it was decadently heaven. To get to freeze any not in this lifetime. Used macadamian nuts. And melted chocolate over the top. Hopefully there might be a piece or two for breakfast. One can always hope.
