Lemony Lemon Scrolls

Makes 16 scrolls Prep Time 3 hours   Cook Time 20 minutes   Rated:

This recipe originally appears in Merry Christmix and has been a firm favourite as a Christmas breakfast option...but I say, Christmas breakfast comes but once a year and that is far too infrequent to wait to make these, so dammit...here they are showing up in a January posting to the site. GO AND MAKE...they are completely off the charts delish! (If I say so may-self!!)

They are best eaten the day of baking, so if you are a small family, be prepared to eat them all, or invite the neighbours over. Don’t say I didn’t warn you...

Either way, when life hands you lemons, I have got you covered!!
