Keep in mind, there was like $10 worth of real maple syrup in these and one pound of butter - yes an entire pound. Four sticks. The funny part? She says they are healthier because they also include buttermilk and a bit of whole wheat flour. I laughed out loud. But I wasn't laughing while eating them - I was tearing up a bit because they were so good.


Of course, the boys were there "helping" me. Samuel was "reading" through the cookbook while Jude looked on. Too cute.
