The Next Best Thing

I know that is lame to start with...who the hell wants the NEXT BEST THING? We all want THE BEST THING EVER - EVERY FREAKIN TIME NO MATTER WHAT IT IS.... well, tough s&*^....sometimes you just have to be happy with the next best thing... and today it is the recipe for "Ms. L's Best Ever Green Icing Cookies"...IF you were at my best ever - Girls ONLY, PJ's Optional Christmas Party and you were smart enough to grab one of these cookies and forget about carbs for 5 seconds then you too will be jumping up and down right now hoping I'm going to tell you how to make some more...

But, this is the real world - so SORRY....if ya didn't grab one. And we are all SOL because Ms. L. prefers to keep this recipe to herself. So, she will be invited next year and we will all hope and pray she comes and brings some more again. In case she decides not too...based on all the shit I've given her about these cookies and her lack of sharing so far - we will just hope for the best next year and in the mean time make our own damn version of these awesome and amazing cookies. Wha freakin LA!!

Sooooo....here we go. And by the way - I am NOT the only FREAK online trying to duplicate these cookies...I have help. They prefer to remain nameless and therefore unable to be sued or beaten up by thugs....this is my best shot at these cookies and yes, I have gained 13 lbs. in the process - but it was worth at least 8lbs. Those last 5 will be a bitch to loose....cookies are good but are they worth it?...you decide, if ya dare...
