I’ve only had these cookies a handful of times with the last time being at least 15 years ago, if not longer. A few weeks ago, seemingly out of nowhere, I had a strong taste for them. I ignored it, but the taste persisted & today while grocery shopping I made my way to the baking aisle knowing full well I would succumb. I baked, ate several, and am sated for at least another 15-20 years. I bagged the rest up & am sending the remaining with Bri to take to work tomorrow.
