I slowly gathered the ingredients and finally had all the things and the time to try this one out!

Verdct: the hubby loves them! I had enough to fill the cookie jar at home, a 32 ounce container for one neighbor and a small glass jar for other friends.
I also found the recipe – dough as well as final out come to taste like soap to me! hahaha! It was just me, so maybe butterscotch pudding is my cilantro?
If you try it, please let me know what you think and if you enjoyed it!
