After a friend who had recently traveled to Baltimore sent me a package of Berger cookies, I was hooked. They disappeared so quickly, I decided to try to re-create them at home. After many tests and tweaks, my husband and I gained 6 pounds between the two of us, but it was worth it-I landed on a reproduction of the famous cookie I'm so proud of. -Marina Castle Kelley, Canyon Country, California
