Has anyone made this recipe? I was looking through past Season's Best cookbooks and it looks yummy. I'd love to hear thoughts from someone who has tried it!
 
I have! And they were very good! My hubby even liked them and he's picky!!! Go for it, I'm sure you'll like them!
 
I've made them many many times for many many shows - a BIG hit!
I find that I need to add about 1/2 of an egg extrato keep them held together though.
 
I just made these! I loved them! I omitted the coconut though.. not a big fan but they will still great!

If I haven't said it enough in the past few days (since I started posting) - YOU ALL ARE AWESOME!!!!!

Thanks so much for giving me such quick answers to all my questions :)
 
Yes, they are always a hit--even with those who aren't fond of coconut. Also, for a quick sauce, I just microwave some apricot jam in a prep bowl and it's delicious with the shrimp cakes.
