It feels like I made these Chewy Double Chocolate Chip Cookies forever ago (it was only last week) but I have been so busy trying to get things ready to finish applying to Valdosta State’s online MLIS program. Yup, I’m trying to go for my master’s. Exciting! However the application process is time-consuming. I’ve tried to divvy up my time between work, trying to get into school, baking and blogging, and of course spending time with Duane, so yea I’m behind.
On to these delicious cookies- SO GOOD! I think this is my new favorite double chocolate chip cookie recipe (I say that a lot, until the next batch I make, they are all good!). The recipe bakes a lot of cookies which is great, I was able to share at work and have plenty at home. I thought I had a good storage idea for the mass amount of cookies but the holder I put them in was not as air tight as I thought. With in two days the batch I put in the cake holder started to get hard, while the ones I brought to work and kept in a different container lasted 4 days.
Everyone that tried these cookie loved them, especially me, and I highly recommend making these cookies ASAP! Now back to writing essays, and don’t forget May 15th is National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day!
