Almondy Warmth Cookies
SUBMITTED BY: Cassie
"I was pleasantly surprised when my late night sugar munchies concoction
tasted fabulous. They*re cake-like; barely crisp around the edges and so
soft inside that the center will literally melt in your mouth. Mom
called them the best cookies she*d ever tried. You should try them."
