While thinking of baked snacks, I thought of the cookie one of my friends had shared with me. Even now I remember how my taste buds went crazy after taking the first bite of that cookie. With each bite, I tried to find out what all it had which gave it that mesmerizing taste. I could taste the oats, raisins, and walnuts in it. It just melted into my mouth.
