COOKIES!

So, I've finally found a chocolate chip cookie recipe that rocks my socks consistently. This is the second batch I've sent with Jessie to school so I think I'll call them Dorm Cookies but their real name is just as good: Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies. I got them from Milk Eggs Chocolate which is a blog by another Portlander which I think is pretty cool. Ok, for you Corbin, not technically in Portland, but really, it's the closest big city and I'm going to say I am for the sake of convenience.

These guys are a little flatter than the originals because I ran out of flour (I even tapped the jar out over the bowl and wound up with only 1 1/2 cups) so I threw in some quick oats instead and that worked, but the ratio of flour to butter still isn't as happy as it would have been if I'd had the actual amount of flour. Oh well, they're still really tasty. Especially with Trader Joe's Organic Chocolate Chips. They're so much better than the regular store kind.
