And cookie is for me! At least, that's what my hero always said. He might have been a blue blob of unrecognizable origin, but I loved me some cookie monster growing up. Cookies are my weakness. I can say no to chocolate cake, brownies, candy bars, etc., but not to a homemade cookie. Although we didn't cook a lot in our house growing up, we did always make fresh cookies from scratch. After years of developing the perfect recipe, here is my offering.
Preheat oven to 315F
1 C. Brown Sugar
1/2 C. Melted Butter
1/2 C. White Sugar
Cream together.
1 Egg
1 Egg Yolk
2 t. Vanilla
Mix into butter mixture.
2 1/2 C. Flour
1/2 t. Baking Soda
1/2 t. Baking Powder
Sift and add half to butter mixture. Mix and add 2nd half. Mix again.
1 1/2 C. Chocolate Chips
Stir in. Bake on Parchment lined cookie sheets for 10-18 min. depending on desired cookie size.
Enjoy and never eat a store bought cookie again!!!

Dear Pilgrim--even though I am on the extreme point counting regime of Weight Watchers...I will try one of these magnificent gems today.
Yum! Cookies are my absolute favorite, too. I knew Tyler and I were a good match when I found out we had the same favorite cookie -- sugar. But let me quickly add that there are many cookies in a close second.
By the way, did you know the old Sesame Streets have a warning label telling parents there are aspects that might not be suitable for today's children? One of the items: Cookie Monster eats too many cookies. Ridiculous! Cookie Monster never really managed to eat his cookies anyway:)
So happy to see the Pilgrim is at it again! I will definitly try this one, Cookie Monster. Your favorite Grammy!
