Things go a little slower now that I have children. They are my first priority. But, I’ve been dreaming of this cookie since before Hayden was born. That’s over a year! Finally, Liam and I got into the kitchen and made this cookie come to life! He was even my hand model…and taste tester.

Do yourself a favor and make these cookies. They will make your taste testers eyes pop wide open with joy!
