(CNN) A cookie competition between two dads turned into a heartwarming effort that has resulted in over 18,000 cookies being delivered to essential workers across Pennsylvania. "I made a commitment to myself that I was going to learn something new every week, and the first thing I did was bake some homemade chocolate chip cookies." Proud of his newest talent, McKenzie shared photos of his dessert on Facebook. That caught the attention of his long-time friend Jeremy Uhrich, who had also taken to baking cookies with his two sons during the pandemic. "The competitor in Jeremy said to the competitor in Scott, 'I bet my cookies are better than yours,' and heck, that's all it took," McKenzie said.
