I saw this recipe on Instagram (thanks Monika for sending it my way) and knew we had to try it. While it looks like a ton of ingredients, it’s mostly things I think you’ll already have at home. I was actually surprised that it was a fairly simple recipe! This was so yummy- it didn’t even last 30 minutes once it was done… 🙂 -X
