    Found this recipe in your 2023-2024 special recipe issue and thought it sounded yummy. I made it, following the directions exactly only to find that it was too dry and crumbly to hold together to cut into 1/8 discs. Not wanting to waste the ingredients I added 4 eggs and baked it as a batch of brownies. Did I miss something or was the recipe incorrect?
