Delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out great! Cinnamon and pecans are one of my favorite combinations. This recipe gives plenty of both flavors. Very easy to make with no odd ingredients that I don’t keep on hand. I don’t like to drag out my mixer so used my immersion blender to mix the liquids. I will definitely make these many more times.
