Chocolate Chip cookies are my favorite treat. Well, let's say they are tied with ice cream. Or let's just put them together!! I have no problem eating half the batch. (If they even make it to the baked stage. The dough is my favorite part!!) One of my solutions to this problem is to just leave enough cookies for everyone in my family to have one, and I give the rest away. There are so many people in my life that I appreciate, and I need to show them more often.
