These little guys are a great party addition or a feature on Appetizers Night! What’s Appetizer Night, you ask? Its the occasional night I don’t feel like a big meal, I get unexpected company for dinner, I feel “peckish” or just in that mood!
This is an old throw-together so I don’t have step by step pictures. So easy, we really don’t need them anyway, do we?
