The Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie
When we decided to do a cookie guide for December this year, I just KNEW we had to include this recipe to share with the CHAARG community! This is a recipe my family has used for years + it’s hands down my favorite cookie recipe of all time. It’s the perfect amount of sweetness with an interesting, but much needed, salty element.
This recipe makes about 50 cookies so if you want a smaller batch, just half the recipe! But, trust me, you’ll want more ; )
