Receta Special Dark Crinkle Cookies
Special Dark Crinkle Cookies
When I see something I like across the room, I make a bee line right for it. Even if it’s in a dream that I conjured up in my mind. I see visions of something special.
Sometimes, I notice that my mind will drift into a sugar coma. I visualize the treat melting in my mouth as it dissipates on my tongue. I want to savor the moment to last a long long time.
Here is what happened. I opened the pantry in search of a little something to eat. That’s when I spotted the canister of Hershey’s Special Dark unsweetened cocoa.
