SUPER EASY & YUMMY. The steps are lengthy but its actually very simple & easy to make. There are many versions out there with little changes on the ingredients. The filling can be replaced with anything like pesto, chocolate, ground peanuts, #coconut, butter and more. This version is the simplest one. #Dough can be prepared by hand, stand mixer or breadmaker.
