Cookies are the staple of Christmas baking. They come in all shapes and sizes and use innumerable flavor combinations from Christmas spices to peanut butter and jelly.
Sometimes simple is best though and this is by far my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe. Soft and chewy and irresistible straight from the oven, they will make your friends want to be first on your Christmas list next year.
Bon appetit!
