"Soft cake-like cookie. The vanilla, cinnamon and chocolate chip combination really add to the flavor. The color is a bit pale so don't expect a golden brown cookie. This is a hit with the gals at the office. I make them every zucchini time."

I like to bake, garden, read and find sites like this on my computer. I'm an empty-nester so a lot of my cooking and baking is shared with my co-workers.
