" I gave four stars because as is they are a bit bland. With my change, it is five stars! As is, the recipe is a bit bland. Instead of pumpkin pie spice, add a mixture of: 1/2 t. salt, 1 1/2 t. cinnamon, 1/2 t. ground ginger, and 1/2 t. ground cloves. I promise you, they will be full of flavor with my spice change!"
