Guest guest Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 very dangerous :| I ate a few too many and my blood sugar was crazy for a couple days - I had to give most of mine away - they're not even safe hidden in the freezer because frozen they are even better )) --- On Sat, 1/17/09, Deann <deannmt wrote: Where I come from, we call these Buckeyes!

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 I have a dear friend who makes these every Christmas (along with at least 15 other different kinds of cookies). They are wonderful - as Meg says, why does everything not good for you taste so darn good?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
