Notes

My notes: I made this recipe a few times and found that adding an additional 1/4 cup of flour gave me the consistency that I wanted. I'm not saying that you need to do that. Make them as written the first time! Every kitchen is different, depending on the pans you use, your oven, and humidity and altitude levels. This was the only tweak that I made.
