Chocolate Chunk Cookies

October 9, 2014 By Aubrie Cornelius

Happy Thursday! For this week’s “A Sweet A Week” I decided to go back to the classics with a chocolate chip cookie recipe. And it’s a winner.

IMG_2870If you’re anything like me, you don’t have one just one favorite type of chocolate chip cookie, you have about a  thousand (okay, maybe 3).  Depending on the day, I could go for a thick and chewy loaded with chocolate chips, or a thinner “fall-apart-in-your-mouth” kinda cookie, or any combination of the two.  Today’s recipe is a bit of a mixture.

IMG_2626I actually discovered this recipe through the mom of a student.  At some point last year I was given a large plate of cookies to take home and, they were so incredible, I begged for the recipe!  Luckily she agreed and I have been making them ever since. These are seriously some of my favorite chocolate chip cookies. Ever.

IMG_2865They strike the perfect balance between cookie dough and chocolate chips and aren’t too sweet (which can easily ruin a perfectly good cookie, in my opinion).  These are the cookies you want to dunk in a tall glass of milk and then lick the excess chocolate off your fingers…. so so sooo good.

IMG_2879So tell me, what are some of your favorite cookie recipes?  Any family secrets I should know about? Leave your thoughts below!
