As Requested By Many...

Since the latest installment of our little blog here, I have gotten numerous requests for the chocolate chip cookie recipe.  So, click here for the cookie recipe!  A couple things to note, I actually did follow all of the directions (hear that, mom?).  Yes, including the "melt the butter and then let it cool until warm", letting the cookies cool on the sheet, and leveling the flour to assure it was the exact amount as the recipe called for.  I even let the eggs sit out at room temperature for a few minutes before cracking them open (another little tip I picked up on along the way).  And finally, I used a 1/4 measuring cup to measure out the dough and then rolled it into balls.  I didn't always break apart the dough and make the "jagged edges", and in fact I think the cookies came out thicker and better if you just rolled them and let them be, so use your judgement.  It seems like a lot of work but the result is worth it!  A little side note, no wonder I got an award for the Home Ec class in high school!

And just because any blog entry wouldn't be complete without pictures, here are a few to enjoy!
