I have made this at least 30 times over the past 5 years. My children special request it for every school function and holiday get together. These are easy to make and go great with my morning peppermint mocha. *edited to add that the only change I make is to leave the sugar sprinkle off of half the batch and to apply it sparingly to the other half. Otherwise these can be pretty messy in the hands of children.
