    Mmm... my grandma used to make those. They were so yummy. I have bought them already made at the grocery store and they weren't near as good.

    Oh Yummmmmm! My aunt and maybe my mom use to make those every Christmas and I loved them - but I think the last time I had a rosette was as a girl or young teen. The look delicious! Can you get the rosette makers anymore? And good goals below! Happy New Year and Blessings to You and Yours!

    My kids call them Booby-trap cookies because you can't steal them without getting powdered sugar on you.

    I discovered as moved around that they do not do well in high humidity areas.

    I am impressed with his butterflies I always get a wing missing here or there.

    Because of Jesus, Bobbie

    How neat! These look like they're a lot like funnel cakes (which I really like!). These would probably be a big hit at our house!

    Hope you have a wonderful day!

    Posted by SuzyScribbles
    Oh, yummy!
    I have one of those, stashed away in the back pantry. But the batter sticks to mine so I get too frustrated. But I don't throw it away because I think...hmmm...one of these days it will work better. :-)
    2 days countdown until I find out if I have to go to Seattle....
