Also. Are you as ready for the weekend as I am? Gah! And then next week is spring break! I can’t wait!!

So this recipe is definitely not new but I made them the other night for a family I made dinner for and was reminded how much I love them and how easy they are!! I always use a cookie sheet instead of  a 9×13 only because I like them thinner and it makes wayyyy more! šŸ™‚
