  9. These cookies have to be very good.
    What it(he,she) me gets out of control a bit is the temperature of the oven since here we measure it in centigrade degrees and the maximum thing they are 240 but I will do to 200 º that I believe that it is the translated temperature.
    Thank you very much Nina and an embrace from Valencia.
