Freezer cookies are like cookies on demand. So I’m going to do this over a double boiler, which is my preferred method for melting chocolate. The idea is that basically, you have a lower piece that has a little bit of simmering water in it. You should have plenty of coating to get through all three logs, plus probably a little bit left over. Once you have those formed cookies, that’s actually the perfect time to freeze them solid.

With nearly all the ballots now counted in the 2024 election, we can fully evaluate the performance of the national and battleground polls this cycle. The battleground polls also weren’t far off the mark, either, although their misses were slightly larger than what we saw in the national polling. What else the polls got rightBeyond signaling that the 2024 presidential election was competitive and uncertain, the polls nailed the political atmospherics that shaped the contest. Additionally, the polls foretold many of the key demographic trends that ended up defining the 2024 election, including Trump’s gains with Latino voters. That was a major story in the 2024 election: There were more self-identified Republican voters than Democratic voters.

The domestic box office is poised for its biggest Thanksgiving haul since the pandemic thanks to a Polynesian princess, a pair of witches and a revenge-fueled gladiator. Disney’s “Moana 2” hit theaters Wednesday and is expected to generate between $120 million and $150 million in box office receipts in the U.S. and Canada through Sunday. The second-highest haul for the holiday period was the $294.2 million secured during the same five-day period in 2013. After ruling the Thanksgiving box office for years with titles from Pixar and Disney Animation, it’s failed to live up to expectations with its recent string of releases. In 2016, “Moana” opened over the Thanksgiving holiday, generating $82.1 million.

The OPEC+ oil alliance postponed a meeting to decide the next steps of its crude production strategy to Dec. 5, two delegate sources told CNBC. The coalition, made up of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies, was initially scheduled to meet on Dec. 1. The OPEC+ coalition is currently operating three sets of separate oil production cuts, in response to an uncertain demand outlook. Under its formal output strategy, member nations are curtailing their combined production to 39.725 million barrels per day (bpd) into next year.

He went on to tell the court that the little girl was left alone when her mother went to work, took the other children to school and even when she went to stay with relatives over Christmas. He alerted family members and later that day social services attended the property, where they found the girl in a drawer. When confronted, the mother “did not show any emotion and appeared blasé,” the social worker told the court in a statement. During an interview with police, the woman said had not known she had been pregnant and was “really scared” giving birth.
