We started off with m&m, chocolate chip cookies. I followed the Toll House recipe on the back and also dumped in 3 small packages of m&m's. My son just participated in a fund raiser for his football team and he wanted to purchase this type of cookie for $15! Instead, we made it for about $3!
My trick to keeping them soft and yummy is to take them out of the oven at the least amount of recommended minutes. Toll House says 9-11 minutes. I take them out at 9, even if they don't look finished. Let them sit for another 5 minutes outside of the oven while still on the cookie sheet before moving to a cooling rack. This allows them to cook themselves the rest of the way, but slowly which keeps them soft.
I like to re-purpose items, so instead of storing them in a plastic bag, I reused an airtight container I saved from the cashews I purchased at Costco. It's great for storage and even better for the environment!
Madeleine quickly discovered the dessert after finishing her dinner tonight!
