Yes Stacey I did, haven't made it before so don't know how much difference it makes. I didn't use the chillie cause I didn't have any and funnily enough the only negative I got (if u can call it that hubby loved them) was him saying it could have done with a little spicyness to make it exactly like KFC. So will def get that for next time.I omited the mixed spice as I didn't think it would go - did you use it Wendy?
