About
The term "spastic" was derived from my first attempt in baking these babies a year ago, as a part of the cookie would be missing.
Fortunately, despite losing a part, these cookies taste as awesome as ever!
*update: Help! I didn't realise how offensive the word "spastic" is when i posted this "how-to".
I'm very sorry if it had offended anyone!!
I can't seem to change the title! T.T
TIP: to make washing easier, soak everything in a tub of hot water.
works well for me!
