To occupy you, while I run around the country with my 18-wheelin’ driving husband – yes, I’m inside the rig with him – here are some cookies I tested before hitting the highways. Reports soon about being on the road as a trucker’s vegan wife. But first, dessert!

Zesty Lime Coconut Wedding Cookies

Texture: soft and moist, but crumbly enough that you might take some heat for it
Taste: lime and coconut play perfectly well together
Rating: 3.5 dough balls

Crispy Pinwheels

Texture: crispy and crunchy
Taste: like carmalized sugar with an ever-so-slight chocolate taste
Rating: 4 dough balls

Almond Ladies Kisses

Texture: soft, but expected crunchy
Taste: overpowered by almond extract, couldn’t taste the chocolate
Rating: 2 dough balls
