Notes As each person tasted these, they said "WOW" Great contrast of flavors and textures. Very easy to put together. We couldn't find the 18 ounce roll and bought the 30 ounce that was available and I doubled the recipe. it was a good thing because they were all eaten. I would cut the pieces smaller as they are very rich.
