Made these for a “Moms Club” night-in at my house and they were a HIT! –The only problem…too easy to pop them in your mouth, one after another…after another, after another… I have celiac disease (ugh) so instead of laboring over gluten-free gingerbread to make the crumbles, I used (store-bought) gluten-free graham crackers.
Loved the make-ahead aspect, too! Making again this weekend for Book Club next week! This time I’m going to try just spreading it out really uniform in the pan to freeze and instead of scooping out to roll in crumbs, I’m going to attempt to cut them into squares/bars. Fingers crossed
Petro says
Hi, CC. Thanks so much for this lovely comment, you just made my day! I’m so happy you and your moms club enjoyed these, they truly are amazing (and addictive lol)
Sally says
These look wonderful!! Can you tell me how many this will make? I can’t wait to try it for our church group.
Petro says
Hi Sally. It depends on how big you make them. I got about 24.
