I have been making this for a couple of years now, first time was for Thanksgiving and what a huge hit! Only mistake I made was not doubling the recipe!

Aaaamazing. So good. I made them for a potluck and wanted to take some home to my boyfriend but they were completely gone. So good.

Great way to save the day, especially on Thanksgiving. I don't add parsley due to family request - but this is delicious!
