I used to make cookies with Dulce de Leche as a binder. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dulce_de_leche With crums of this type of vanilla pastry (I don't know the name in English)
And decorate with coconut.Wow I never realized how many different styles of no bake cookies there are! I'm eyeballing those Haystack cookies!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
