Jessie loves cookies and Molly makes her own very special treat when Jessie has been especially good.  Molly makes a batch of Cranberry Sunflower cooks for her family but leaves the cranberries out for Jessie.

For a change she tries dried blueberries instead of cranberries.

Make sure mom and dad help you with the oven.  You don’t want to burn yourself.

Enjoy!
