Our neighbors put together an egg hunt for this afternoon where they hide 400 eggs in the yards on our street and all of the kids in the neighborhood are welcome. Even though they are only 2 and 5, my girls really look forward to it. Anyway, I thought it would be nice to contribute something so I did one of the things I do best and made chocolate chip cookies. Oh, by the way, I make the best chocolate chip cookies in the world.
Seriously. I wish I could sell them somewhere because they are so good and I love to make them. Now this isn't a recipe I invented myself (as if). You can get it online as a matter of fact. Actually, you can get it here. One thing I never understood about recipes and cooking is that you can give two people the exact same recipe but the finished product won't necessarily be the same. My mom always used to tell me what a good baker I was and I would say "but I just followed the recipe". She would then say that not everyone can follow a recipe but seriously, these cookies are so easy even a baboon could make them (no offense to the local baboon population). Just be sure to take them out of the oven as soon as they start to turn brown at the edges. They will look under done but once they cool they will be perfect.
I do have a warning though. If you have little people living in your house be prepared to see something like this at your feet the moment they come out of the oven.
