D is for delicious. E is for eat this delicious treat! I've been reading a lot of children's books to my sleeping audience....
This is a quick one 'cause my sleeping audience is about to wake up. I was surfing around the interwebs the other night on my phone when I stumbled on a recipe for a cookie in a cup. As in, an instant treat. And even though we almost always have cookie dough in the freezer, and even though it was 10pm and OMG the baby has been asleep for an hour and a half, girl get yourself to bed so you can get your 8 hours, I had to try it out.
Verdict is yummy. Try it out if you need a little sweet and are a little short on time. Like at 10pm tonight.
