These were great. I made them for a Super Bowl party. I added a little more brown sugar. Everyone loved them

The list of ingredients calls for grape juice AND grape jelly. Is this correct?

I made these for my Bunco group last night and everyone wanted the recipe! Very easy to make and tasted delicious!

I would suggest substituting grape jelly for the grape juice in the recipe to retain the flavor and to ramp up the sweetness.

Pretty good, I made this for my book club meeting and it was a hit. However, like the previous post I would like it a tad bit sweeter, but I will make again

This is my go-to recipe for a potluck when I know I will not have a lot of time for cooking that day. I have made these several times and always get lots of complements on them. I am making them again on Tuesday for a Valentine's Potluck at Church.
