Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

I feel possessed when I crave cookies. I don’t make them often, because I would have them for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack-time. When I do make them, I feel cathartic, warm, and fuzzy. What’s more satisfying than eating nothing but cookies on cheat day? Nothing. The answer is nothing.
