The Best Ever

Chocolate Chip Cookies are a classic and it’s a good recipe to always have ready on hand to go. Adult, teen, or kid we all love chocolate chip cookies the same. We have a connection to chocolate chip cookies. Whether it be we just love them, or we have a memory growing up always making them with our parents or grandparents, or you always share one with your best friend. Whatever your connection to this classic cookies is, enjoy it. Never feel guilty enjoying a deliciously crispy and sweet chocolate chip cookie. As I always say treat yourself with something sweet in moderation.

Crispy is pretty good

Personally I am a crispy chocolate chip cookie lover. The edges are slightly toasted and the crumble is magical. When you bite into it and you get a cookie dough flavor mixed with chocolate chips how can you not fall in love at first bite. Cookies are a go to in my family, but unfortunately or fortunately everyone has a different preference and they voice it. Some like the chocolate chip cookies soft, which are delicious. Some like crispy on the edge and soft in the center. And others don’t like too many chocolate chips. But… with this recipe these chocolate chip cookies are gone in a second.

Ever have those must eat a chocolate chip cookie now moments? Well this dough will keep in the freezer portioned out and ready.  Sometimes you want one just because. Other times it is great to have on hand for entertaining. Make sure to freezer the portioned cookies separately and this will make it easy when you are ready to pop them in the oven to bake.
