I used a wire potholder for that. But your recipe's waaay better and more economical in terms of gas/electric usage.

I kept telling myself I'm on a diet but I just can't do it--especially by looking at this. It would really be a great addition to cookie baskets for Christmas though. This totally looks sooooooo divine. I'd love to put this on top of a bundt cake. Oh my sweetness! I kept telling myself I’m on a diet but I just can’t do it–especially by looking at this.
