Ladies and gentlemen, I have died and gone to dessert heaven. I spied this post over on Spoon Fork Bacon and thought it would be the perfect way to end our mini-potluck. These were pretty easy to put together (although I did overstuff them a bit - it made 12 for me and they did burst a bit), and they filled our house with the most wonderful aroma. The cardamom whipped cream is something that blew me away. I would eat that on just about anything. Seriously. It was that good. Anyway, these really impressed our friend, and were a wonderful way to end the meal. I'll definitely be making them again, and I look forward to trying more desserts in eggroll form!
