Notes

  • Like I mentioned in the post, I made these many times. And every time I make it, I use 1 tablespoon of heavy cream. However, a reader commented that when she used only 1 tablespoon she thought that it wasn't enough. After reading her comment, I increased the amount of heavy cream to 1 1/2 tablespoons and tried it that way. It was still good, but a little too soft (less crispy) for my taste. If you like it softer, feel free to increase the amount of heavy cream used to your liking.
