A lovely breakfast treat for the family! I didnt use the frosting because none of us are crazy about very sweet breakfast dishes and it was really nice nonetheless. Easy to make too which is always a BIG plus, lol! Our youngest son has some friends coming for a sleepover next weekend and has asked me to make it for breakfast. Praise indeed!
