Simply open the package and enjoy them as they are. They require no preparation. For a slightly different texture, you can warm them briefly in a microwave or oven, though this is optional. They pair well with a glass of milk, a cup of coffee, or tea. They can also be used as a component in a dessert platter or as a fun addition to a child's snack box. Their small size makes them easy to serve and consume.
