NY Times Chocolate Chip Cookies
I think this NY Times Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe is soooo buttery. Some love that. Some don’t.We love trying to find out favorite chocolate Chip Cookie recipe and Cade, my hubby, looooooooved this one.
It takes some preparation, but I was thinking about it and while this isn’t the recipe for spur of the moment it is perfect for planning ahead. See, sometimes I need to make someone cookies or whatever and I stress because I know my day is too crazy. Some recipes MUST be baked immediately which means there is no prep the day before. That’s a little annoying. But, this one is perfect!
You can make the dough a day ahead and just bake them right before you need them.
