It's Friday! Hallelujah! The first week back to work after vacation is always brutal. We had such a nice time on our cruise, and the warmth of the sun felt amazing. Coming back to the snow and ice was pretty difficult, to say the least. I needed some comfort food - a BIG bite of comfort food, so I whipped up a batch of these Mega Chocolate Chip Cookies.
When I say mega, I mean mega. Each cookie is about ⅓ cup of dough or a decent sized ice cream scoop. You know that saying, "Go big or go home?" I'm home from vacation and I'm going BIG!!
This recipe takes 4 sticks of butter - count them. . .four and 24 ounces of chocolate chips. It took me awhile to get these right. The first couple batches, I OVER baked. I'm not a fan of crispy cookies. I like mine soft and chewy. I reduced the baking time and finally got them right.
For my oven, 19-20 minutes seemed like the perfect bake time.
We're all big fans of these cookies. How could you NOT be? They're soft, chewy and LOADED with chocolate chips!
I mean, come on. When is the last time you saw a cookie that looked this good? Well, hello beautiful.
Listen to me now. . .one cookie at a time. One is all you need. If you eat one of these cookies before dinner, you won't eat dinner. Trust me. Share with a friend, if necessary. 😉 And then store the rest in a BIG, BIG covered bowl. Enjoy, my friends!
To keep the cookies soft and chewy, throw a slice of bread into the bowl with the cookies. As the piece of bread dries out, replace with a fresh one.
For more cookie madness, try these peanut butter cookies (they're a reader favorite)- follow that up with a slice of milk & cookies pie and then dig into this cookies & cream Oreo dessert! You'll be in cookie heaven for sure!
