| Oh, so yummy caramel filling! |
It's been a while since I did a Food Fun Friday, but this morning, while I was waiting for my characters to get their dialogue figured out, I decided to make a new cookie. It came out so well I decided to share...and of course I took pictures of the process with blogging in mind. LOL
