  2. I'm not really the type of girl who enjoys the process of baking, but seeing this makes me want to try it. You explained the procedures very clearly and straight to the point, which is really helpful especially for beginners like me. I also enjoyed the pictures you chose because it makes it visually appealing, so now I want to try baking this cookies even more instead of buying one at my local grocery store.

  3. Baking is something I really enjoy and I will attempt to make these since well we are all stuck inside. The dough part of the recipe seems solid and always a good idea to add candy to cookies.
