![The Wayland Police Department have issued a warning on the rise of scammers during the holiday season. “Hang up [the phone]. if you get a text and you do not know who it's from, just delete it. Don't click on any links, nothing,” Wayland police chief Edward Burman said. “Every single one of them is a scam.”](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/img_0954_720-e1734676255647.jpg)
![WHS’s Connect Program ran its annual holiday gift drive to fulfill the wishlist of children enrolled in the Dorchester based non-profit daycare organization, the Yawkey Center. This drive brought the town together and impacted both the students in Connect, as well as the greater Wayland community. “You could see how helpful the town was and how our community came together and wanted to help out a community that wasn't our own [and] kids who were less fortunate than we were,” senior and Connect Program member Jordynn Lee said.](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/screenshot_2024-12-20_at_12.21.24___pm_720-e1734734228474.png)

“This event is one of the things that [the Boy Scouts] get to have a direct impact on the community,” freshman Alex Macleod said.](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Screenshot-2024-12-11-at-8.38.38 AM.png)
I prefer chocolate cupcakes, but you can also make vanilla if you’re into that. Oh, and if you’re one of those people who are scared of contracting salmonella or something from eating raw food, have no fear. This dough has no eggs it, so it’s perfectly safe.
For the cupcakes, I’d use this recipe: http://www.marthastewart.com/337010/chocolate-cupcakes
Cookie dough frosting:
1 cup butter
1 tablespoon water
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
A pinch of salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup chocolate chips
Directions:
1. Let the butter soften.
2. Place the butter and brown sugar in a bowl and stir with a fork or large wooden/plastic spoon until smooth and creamy.
3. Put contents of the bowl into a mixer. Add the water, vanilla, flour and salt. Mix on medium until the ingredients are equally mixed to form uniform dough.
4. While the mixer is going, toss in the chocolate chips, so they will be distributed evenly throughout the dough.
