    I use to make these when my son was a toddler. I would shape them like bumble bees and use almonds for wings. I would take a toothpick, dip it in cocoa powder and use it to make the eyes and stripes of the bumble bee - 4/26/09

    O.K.
    I didn't like this :/
    I think it was because of the texture that the powdered milk gave it.
