For as long as I can remember, I’ve baked my own treats: chocolate chip cookies for movie night; broken glass cake — not as dangerous as it sounds — for my sister’s birthday; double chocolate cheesecake just because. If the occasion calls for it, I’m there, homemade sweet treat in hand.
But lately, I’ve become enamoured with a certain cookie: Celebration’s blueberry truffle butter cookie. Its base defies physics by being somehow soft and crunchy, while the thick blueberry syrup balances the bitterness of the layer of dark chocolate coating the top.
There’s something about it that just speaks to me, keeps me going back to the cupboard for just one more. If I’m not careful, I might just turn into a blueberry. And you know what? If it means I’m as delicious as these cookies, I don’t mind one bit.
