Who doesn’t love a chocolate chip cookie and all of its ooey-gooey glory?? Some recipes are more complicated, but we like to keep it simple with the Land O’ Lakes recipe. We halved the recipe and still had two dozen cookies to share! Chocolate chip cookies also freeze well so you could absolutely make the whole recipe and freeze half of them for the next gathering to save yourself some time. Enjoy!
