    Incredible!
    These are so good. Just like my grandmothers. Takes me back to the Christmas's when I was a child and helped my grandmother bake. The smell was so good. Never could just eat one. - 12/6/20

    Incredible!
    I cannot wait to make these! They remind me just of what my mom would make for the holidays and now since I'm trying to be more healthy, I thought about these, just like you. Thanks so much for posting! I just know that they'll be a five star! - 10/31/11

    Very Good
    Wow, practically impossible to eat just one! I made this with 1/2 Splenda and 1/2 sugar (sometimes all Splenda can have a slight aftertaste) and I used about 1/2 the black walnuts called for since their flavor is so powerful, and I plan to make this again soon! An excellent, not-too-sweet treat! - 4/4/10
