Neely Pinson, Toaster Strudel Cookies

The judges decided that the overall winner for BOTH ages groups is Neely Pinson for her Toaster Strudel Cookies. In the middle of the judging, she said she just had to eat a bite of one because they were so good. They judges were very amused by this and agreed that her cookies were delicious. Neely explained how she had made the crust from scrath and the judges were very impressed. Way to go, Neely!
