I could NOT get this recipe out of my head from the moment that Denise! mentioned it in a thread. Luckily, I bought double the amount of ingredients with the intention of making these twice this week. HaHa! While the initial batch was baking in the oven, my DH looked inside and said, "You've got MORE of those, don't you?" So, I had another sheet ready to bake while we feasted on the first tray. Stunningly simple yet elegant to the eye; we had these with roasted tomato soup garnished with goat cheese. Thanks, Denise!, for this 5 star recipe!!!
