Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies

Image
Hey ya’ll!  I have another chocolate chip recipe that I want to share with you and this is definitely another favorite, best-loved chocolate chip cookie to add to the blog.  We can never have enough cookie recipes can we??  Nope!!  These are seriously, the most sublime, “Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies“! This Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe will be your new favorite!  I’m obsessed with these chocolate chip cookies, they have been carefully crafted to be perfectly soft, perfectly chewy, and just all around perfectly delectable.  You’ll never need another chocolate chip cookie recipe again. I’m slightly obsessed with chocolate chip cookies.  I have stuffed them with cheesecake, with Reese’s cups, with Funfetti, and I even have my own “worst ever” chocolate chip cookie on my site. But one thing I haven’t shared yet is a classic chocolate chip cookie.  I’ve spent the past few weeks working on developing an ultimate guide to chocolate chip cookies, and while the guide is still in the

Healthy Chocolate Chip Cookies

The sweet and natural ingredients complete these healthy gluten free chocolate chip cookies and really complete my soul. With such simple ingredients, they are still sinfully delicious, moist and so easy to pull together.  Told you it’s a winner. Winner winner healthy chocolate chip cookies for dinner?! Don’t have to tell me twice. The night I pulled these together I ate so much dough and cookies, I actually did skip dinner. Cookie dough that has zero eggs in it is dangerous. There is nothing stopping me from demolishing every leftover dough bite. Or lets be real, spoonfuls of dough. Take our healthy cookie dough for a whirl if you desire. 😉 Or our cookie dough overnight oatmeal! *Yes I have a problem with loving cookie dough too much* After making these healthy chocolate chip cookies, they were all I could think about, and I knew I’d have to share the recipe immediately with all of you. Because, chocolate chip cookies!!! Cookies cookies cookies!!! Ok, I’ll calm down no

VEGAN SUGAR COOKIES THAT WON’T SPREAD

Image
Every holiday, I really struggle with cookies. I totally want to make THOSE cookies. You know, the intricate, pretty ones with the shapes that stay when you bake them and the icing that does some fancy spreading when put on, but then it kind of hardens. You know the ones. They look like a million dollars, but you know that they have to be easy or no one would make them ever. Yeah, those. I want to make those. But I could not. Nope, not me. Until I made some crazy mistakes and stumbled across this stupid-easy recipe. Yeah, that’s right. Vegan Sugar Cookies that Won’t Spread. I am in love. I can’t wait to use these for like EVERYTHING. After much trial and error, I finally have the perfect recipe for soft cut-out vegan sugar cookies.  Seriously, these are the cookies of my dreams, and I think you will LOVE them! They are easy to make and roll out. A little trick I learned is to roll the dough onto parchment paper before chilling in the refrigerator. This way, the cookie dough only

VALENTINE BEAR HOLDING HEART COOKIES

Image
When I saw these adorable bear cookies hugging nuts from Japanese Chef Maa Tamagosan, I immediately thought this would be a cute idea for Valentine’s Day, with a bear holding a heart instead. I wanted a brown bear, so I decided to tweak a gingerbread recipe and used red fondant for the heart. This was a fun project the kids helped me make in the kitchen and make super cute Valentine’s Day treats! These sweet bears look too adorable to eat! But that didn’t stop us. They’re soft from the molasses but still firm on the outside. And have a delicious cinnamon flavor. Ingredients: 3 cups flour 1/2 tsp kosher salt 3/4 tsp baking soda 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 cup or 1 stick unsalted butter, softened 1/2 cup white sugar 1 large egg 2/3 cup dark molasses Instructions: Whisk the flour, salt, cinnamon and baking soda in a bowl.

Cowboy Cookies

Image
I’m not sure of the origin of Cowboy Cookies and you’ll find a variety of versions of them if you look online. To me, they mean a cookie that’s packed full of good stuff like a cowboy is. This recipe has a lot going on with chocolate chips, oats, raisins and almonds. It makes one delicious cookie! Feel free to tweak it and add your own spin to it. Don’t like raisins? Try dried cranberries or leave them out. Chocolate chips not your thing? Add some white chocolate chips or butterscotch chocolate chips. You get the idea. Just make sure you pack them full of your favourite ingredients! I can tell you that this batch of Cowboy Cookies did not last long. It makes three dozen cookies so I spread the love by giving some to my cousin to take home to her family. She has two teen boys with insatiable appetites. My recipes get gobbled up way faster at her place than mine. I have picky eaters here. However, my girls both liked this recipe and even Olivia’s boyfriend had a few. ingredient
