‘Crack Cookies’ Seized From an Apartment
Sheriff’s deputies have found about 17 pounds of cocaine that had been converted into “crack cookies”--apparently for distribution in Pringles corn chip cans--in an apartment in Valencia.
Narcotics investigators said wafers of hard cocaine were made so they would fit snugly into the cans and could be hidden beneath a topping of chips.
About 260 “cocaine cookies” were seized Wednesday in the unoccupied apartment where an informant said “crack” was being manufactured. During the search the deputies noticed several empty Pringles cans and chips stored in plastic bags. They then realized that the crack made in the beakers was formed into discs exactly the diameter of the cans.
