I'm 73 years young and remember my mom making these many times and the taste was absolutely heavenly. Have tried making these myself for my family and they all love them. The flavor is real close but not exactly what I remember. Not sure if it was the cast iron skillet or possibly the bacon grease or possibly both. But all in all this recipe is just like my mom's.
