    These are wonderful! I baked them up and put them in the freezer. I can take one out for breakfast and either heat it up or just thaw it. Delicious either way! - 7/6/09

    Very Good
    As another member stated, these are a bit labor intensive but very much worth it. They are amazingly moist and I love the spice flavor they have especially the nutmeg. I served them with a fruit salad for breakfast. Yummy!! - 8/7/07
