I was trying to make a basic sugar cookie and could not get the right consistency for the dough. After a lot of frustration and a little light bulb going off I added margarine and created a cookie that tastes like Vanilla Wafers and Danish Butter Cookies had a delicious baby!

Cooking brings me joy especially when doing it for others. I live in San Antonio, Texas but I have Creole and Italian roots...cooking is in my blood. Sometimes I feel like a mad scientist in the kitchen but my experiments often yield delicious results!
