What’s better than a snow day? A snow day with warm chocolate chip cookie fresh out of the oven! My quest for the perfect cookie has taken many months and many batches of cookies. (You can imagine how much my family complained about all of the taste testing!)
Here’s my version of everyone’s favorite cookie. A mouthwatering chocolate chip that’s the perfect balance of crisp outside and chewy inside, and best of all – loaded with chips for extra chocolatey goodness.
