effing awesome molasses cookies

yes, that is the whole title...like a pimp named slickback. but i digress (pronounced, dee-hress). these taste like ginger snaps without the lame "snap" part. i want none of that in my cookies. only two things in the world should be hard, and cookies are not one of them. hiyooo!


p.s. i know some of you out there are only friends with me because of these cookies, if you suddenly stop talking to me, I'LL KNOW WHY!


auditory pairing: she wants revenge - tear you apart (the cookie, of course)
