Then there is clean up too! Heck no. Food and cooking can be fun, quick, easy and rewarding.
Did I fail to mention the leftovers of these are simple to heat up, OR you can add some more butter, cinnamon and even toasted nuts and you have yourself a mini dessert. See, two recipes in one! Then you can take some to work and heat it up and let your co-workers be envious as they smell what’s in your little hands…yum!
