But anyway, these little fellas can quickly be heated in the oven. 25 minutes at 350 degrees. Ours came out awesome. They were crispy and crunchy around the crust and nuts, and they were smooth and soft in the filling department. They're like little miniature pumpkin pie desserts. So much so, that we grabbed the whipped cream and topped them with little tufts of the confection. Delicioso. Seriously, we downed the entire box in a matter of minutes, just Sonia and me.
I'm just happy that I broke my little streak of Scrooge-like Bah Humbug-ness. Tasty little bites. Hmmm, what else should I tell you about them? Buy them. I'm gonna go ahead and give them a 4.5. I'm feeling happy right now. Serve them at a party with some high-quality eggnog and maybe some Christmas cookies and other finger foods.
Sonia was just as enthused with them as I was. She absolutely loved their taste. She thought that they weren't too sugary...just naturally sweet. She liked their texture, too. Nice and flakey. She's gonna go with a 4.
Bottom line: 8.5 out of 10.
I agree, these are great. Better yet is that our local TJs has had these babies for 89 CENTS a box for the last month or so! Apparently they over-bought them or something...doesn't matter, my freezer is happy !
ReplyDeleteNo need to apologize.. Even TJ's employees will steer me clear of some of the products! lol... like I said, some ethnic foods are better left to the pros of the ethnic groups.
ReplyDeleteYeah, don't try to cook them in the toaster oven though. I bought a box because they were $0.89 and it ended poorly. I'm sad they were gone the next time I went.
ReplyDeleteThese look like they would be really good. I will have to give them a try. Thanks for sharing. :-), Susan Cooper
ReplyDeleteInteresting to note, after you mention downing the entire box, the serving size is one.
ReplyDeleteYea yea, same thing with Hagen-Daz, apparently there's 4 servings in a pint. Who knew...
