Okay this is my weakness. No doubt about it. Reminds me of Oreos! OMG did someone say Oreos? Yummy cookies. What I like about this recipe is that it is Parve, though if you want to use butter instead of margarine - you will make the cookies dairy. Guess it depends on your taste buds too. Gets a 2 star for difficulty as you need timing here and baking. (So you cannot actually phase out of the world while doing the cookies, much like I usually do!)

You mention in your comment that butter can be used in place of margarine. I have found that cookies have a tendency to burn quicker if butter is used.

Unless it is a butter cookie or a brown edged wafer type, I suggest margarine :)

If I had all this stocked in my kitchen - trust me I would al

This book review was solicited by the publishers of the Shrek Cookbook and contains my opinion of the book. For kosher readers of Help! I Have A Fire In My Kitchen - This is not a "kosher" cookbook though the majority of recipes in the Shrek Cookbook can be used as is, or with just a few sane and healthy substitutions, can be kept kosher.
