I wanted to take cookies to work for my friends and thought it was the perfect opportunity to introduce the "Mini" or as I refer to them as "Fat Pills". They are a one or two bite cookie that are perfect for just a little bit of something sweet. These are chocolate covered with pink fondant and decorated with a royal icing rosebud.
On another note, I read on Yahoo news this past week that store bought or processed cookies are one of the foods that increase your risk of having a stroke. The solution they mentioned was making your cookies at home, from scratch. That sounded to me like an endorsement for my made-from-scratch cookies which contain only natural ingredients such as butter (not margarine or shortening) and no preservatives. So, I guess they're saying that my cookies are actually good for you ! ( Do you think?) Let me know if I can contribute to your good health : )
Here's a link to the yahoo article if you'd like to see for yourself!
