Cookie Day: Truffle Treats

Because of my gluten-free diet, I picked out a couple non-cookie recipes to try with our CE2 students. Today we made truffles, a first for all of us involved.

Between math and English chapters and internship duties, Sue, Dillon, David, Dustin, Doug and Justine helped with various stages of the creation. We think they turned out well... yum!
