Snickerdoodles
Originally uploaded by professor evil
A couple days ago I was tweeting about having to make a second batch of Snickerdoodles because my Evil Family had eaten the ENTIRE first batch -- some eight dozen cookies.

Fortunately making more wasn't a big deal: I like baking Snickerdoodles. Still, I was a bit amazed that my husband and three young boys could have been quite that greedy, especially in just a matter of two or three days.

Anyway, I made the second batch. I let it sit overnight for the flavor to develop. Then I took the nice big container of fresh Snickerdoodles and opened the deep freezer to hide them away so that my Evil Family could not NOM them a second time.

And lo, inside the freezer I found...

...you've guessed it, haven't you?

Yeah. Well.

The plus side is that we now have lots of Snickerdoodles?

I have long ago learned not to accuse anybody of anything I did not my own self see them do.

Snickerdoodles need eggnog.

Eggnog. And snickerdoodles.

...why did I never think of this INCREDIBLE STROKE OF GENIUS?

It will be done. It MUST be done!

*paces wildly around house, wondering how to get eggnog in the middle of a gigantic blizzard*
