This is my favorite recipe my mom has taught me, it only takes 20 minutes to make these delicious treats , this delicacy was invented by mom a few months ago and since she made it, we've been addicted, when I put these on the table they're gone within minutes and everyone's always asking "if there's more" #mamataughtmewell
