Cindy McCain's Stolen Cookies

Via Democratic Underground we find out that Family Circle has a Presidential Cookie Bake-Off. The spouses of the candidates are supposed to submit a cookie recipe for the contest. At the time Hillary was still in the running so Bill submitted a recipe for his favorite cookie even though he never bakes them himself. Cindy McCain did what any good Republican in a similar situation would do and simply stole a recipe. But she got caught because it was directly from the Hershey's website.

If they would have asked for a submission from the Vote Jake camp they would have received a fantastic recipe for good old chocolate chip cookies. It's a variation on the Nestle Toll House recipe but with enough butter to trigger a heart attack just by smelling them. So why was I not informed about this bake-off?

The real cheater here would be Michelle Obama who submitted a recipe that called for a shot of amaretto. Cooking with alcohol is an unfair advantage.

I prefer peanut butter cookies with hershey kiss drops......but choclate chip with lots of buttery goodness works too.

BTW, Mook sends his regards.
