Alli decided to ran to the grocery store with me last night...of course I was ONLY planing on picking up half and half for my morning coffee, but of course she had different ideas. By the time we left..."Dad...you've got to make cookies...if I'm stuck home on a Saturday night, least you can do is make cookies".....so much for sitting around and reading.
Alli LOATHES nuts in cookies, I personally love pecans or walnuts in my Chocolate chip cookies.
These may not be "Top Chef", but I've been making these for years. Simple, basic...who doesn't love a great Chocolate chip cookie. And unlike my favorite Top Chef Desserts star, Danielle Keene of Biittersweet "that taste but doesn't eat" ( I still think she just has "The Skinny Gene" )...I not only taste all of my cooking, I eat it too!
