"I love this recipe. I intend on using it as my go to dish for guest. Although it was spicy I enjoyed it and heard no complaints from my husband and mother- in- law both from New Orleans. Thanks for another great recipe.

"I thoroughly enjoyed making these cookies with my four year old daughter and my two year old son. The recipe was extremely easy and took no time at all the night before Christmas.
