HAPPY 2013!!!! A friend of mine gave me this recipe and I was so thankful! I was so behind on my holiday baking this year that on Christmas Eve morning, I was scrambling to make something for Mr. G's coworkers before he left for work! This recipe only takes 20 minutes to make and you don't even need to turn on the oven!!
The original name for these cookies is Holy Crap These are Amazing Cookies. The amazing thing about these cookies is it's pretty damn good for practically no effort! The only thing that makes me so nervous about these cookies is the need for one whole cup of corn syrup. Yikes!!! I have been more conscious of looking at labels for addition of corn syrup, and I can't believe I willingly poured in one cup of corn syrup!!! Does any one know of an alternative?! Because I would really like to make these again!! Here's the recipe.

The amazing thing about these survival warehouse emergency food cookies is it's pretty damn good for practically no effort!
For each cup of light corn syrup in a recipe, substitute 1 cup of sugar and 1/4 cup water. For each cup of dark corn syrup, substitute 1 cup of packed brown sugar and 1/4 cup water.
Thanks for the tip, I will definitely give that a try!
