When I was in high school, I worked for a bakery/cafe/catering company. They made the most amazing things, I looked forward to going to work for a snack after school, and fresh pastries every Saturday morning when I went in. I still went in on occasions after I stopped working there, and even when I moved to Dayton where my husband was stationed, I'd have my best friend bring me these cookies when she came to visit. I didn't have very many cravings this last pregnancy, but now that my daughter is two months old, I cant seem to eat enough of anything! I was talking to my best friend about these damned cookies and was determined to Google the perfect recipe. I found one that seemed pretty close, but I still had to fix a few things. It made about 6 dozen cookies, we shared with a few neighbors in the building and still had plenty to snack on. My three year old said "they're the BEST cookies EBBER!"
