The Hungary Cookie

Calvin’s assignment for his Geography class was to research the country of Hungary.  One part was to find some interesting places in that country, and show them on a map.  There was also a way to get extra credit for this class by bringing in food from the country.  Put these requirements together and you get the Hungary cookie shown below, created by Calvin and his Dad.
