Yummy Cookies!

I've been starting to worry about my milk supply once I go back to work. I have been doing some research and came across this recipe for cookies. I thought I'd share it. Heather, I KNOW you'll love these! Robin, I'd be surprised if you even bake them, there might not be anything left in the bowl to bake once you taste test them! LOL!
