ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – A local cookie shop is putting New Mexico on the map after its performance on national television.
Monday night, co-owner of Rude Boy Cookies, Kristin Dowling, won the Food Network’s “Christmas Cookie Challenge.”
In the first round, she made biscochitos. Then in the second round, Dowling decided to make a 3-D New Mexico themed cookie.
“I think it made me stand out a little bit because everybody else did the traditional snowman snowy scene, and I’m like no, we have to do this my way. It has to come from my heart and I just love New Mexico so much that I wouldn’t have it any other way,” Dowling said.
Not only does Dowling get bragging rights, she also is taking home $10,000.Watch the Full Episode: Christmas Cookie Challenge
