I have a confession: I am not a huge fan of sweets. There, I finally said it. I like a tiny bit of chocolate here and there on the random occasion but other than that, it’s just not really my thing. That being said, I really enjoyed these! They are a perfect treat for any holiday party or get together! My kids even really enjoyed them!
