Secret recipe

At Christmas time, all of us at the office received special packages with these heavenly cookies in them. My dear co-worker H is the pastry chef responsible for these works of art. We all raved and raved over them and asked for the recipe.

But she keeps it a secret. She wants to keep the cookies special and if everyone had the recipe they wouldn't be special anymore.

When it came time to plan E.A.'s Open House, we strategically asked H to make cookies for it. She let us shop for the ingredients, but she kept her recipe book hidden from us while she baked. She's a sneaky wise one.
