During a recent recipe share on Instagram, I felt like sharing this fabulous recipe that I have been making for over 25 years and is a family, friends and co-workers favorite. Making these are super fast and easy, just be sure the cream cheese is softened prior to mixing them together.

Every bite is just so good and just having one is never enough.
