Made these for a Jimmy Buffet concert a few years ago (hmmmm, might have to recreate that menu and post it) and came home with NONE! Didn't expect to. Definitely a Parrothead dessert!

Made these for Easter and was very proud to serve them. I used an 8" square pan with most of the crust and all of the batter - thick and chewy. Perfect! Thanks for the recipe, crabhappychick!
