ReplyDeleteI just made these and they were awesome,the only thing I did differently was I used a toothpick and just one of everything so it was very bite sized. I love this website, I tell everyone about it. I also made the cupcake turkey meatloaves for a baby shower, they were a huge hit. Thanks for the recipes!
