Now that I’m living in California and miles away from friends and family, the top two questions I get are:
- When are you moving back?
- Can you make some cookies?
If I would have known my cookies where these popular maybe I should have continued with Top Shelf Treats and not pursue Dabira 🙂
I figured just in time for the holidays. This, we would be the perfect time for me to share my chocolate chip recipe. It is so simple and pretty much foolproof. You have to make sure you refrigerate the dough trust me, be patient it will be worth it.
This is a lovely base recipe for you to use feel free to throw in nuts, or whatever floats your boat. I’ve also made this as a base for my smookies (maybe, I’ll share that recipe soon!) and as a regular chocolate chip. Most of these ingredients you have in your kitchen or can be easily found in the baking aisle.
Although I’m still far away, I ended up shipping this batch of cookies to my best friend and husband because I’m still on “keto,” an update on that process coming soon. I can’t have all these delicious cookies around me.
I researched the best way to ship cookies, and you make a cookie sandwich and wrap them up in Saran Wrap. I sent these priority mail, and they arrived in one piece.
Give these cookies a try and let me know what you think! If you want a treat, make yourself an ice cream sandwich. It’s ah-mazing!
