This is one of my favorite dishes. I can eat it for an entree’. Another beautiful job, Phillip. Thanks.

Oh.. I almost forgot. I always cut a thin flat spot in the middle of the uncut side of each half, so they will sit level in the pan. Then they don’t roll around or tip over and spill out all the good stuff.

I grew up on this side dish. My mom always put red hots (the little candies) in them with the brown sugar and butter. YUMMY!!!
