This is quite an easy and delicious recipe and some of you probably made these already or in some form or other. These are great dipped 1/2 in chocolate of different color and flavors as well. You even might want to add a dab of marshmallow creme too. Land 'O Lakes photo and recipe is tweaked by me.
