I made this recipe but put them into muffin tins and added a gauche to the top was still as nice - 19 Mar 2017
Everyone in our family loves it. I made it several times and honestly am puzzled by the negative reviews. European desserts are less sweet, which I personally prefer. I use 2 cups flour and 1 stick butter (to simplify). Since I bake it in a stoneware pie dish, I add 10-15 min to the bake time. - 21 Jan 2019 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
