  2. This definitely isn't the same as MVB's, but it is still tasty! She must have a special ingredient.

  3. Just made these and they were delicious! I used just one 9x13 pan (by mistake) and ended up adding 15-20 extra min on baking the time. Luckily it worked out because my family inhaled them.
    Thank you for the recipe!
