Delicious. My first time ever making this classic and this recipe did not disappoint. I would go as far as saying these were the BEST Afghans my family have ever eaten. Thank you Edmonds!

I absolutely hate this recipe I followed all the steps and it came out burnt to the crisp and I tried again and still after 8 mins of cooking burnt. I'm sorry to leave such a bad review but I didn't have a good experience with this recipe but therefore it may have been me the chef.
