How long can you leave in the freezer for
Hi I made this for the first time the wraps were very soggy – what did I do wrong?
Doubled the recipe, one for now (one fir the freezer)
But as I only have one container, I bagged each component up and then placed everything in 1 large bag.
Defrosted in the fridge and then assembled.
I placed greaseproof paper between the wraps to prevent them going sticky
