Now that the kids are back to school, I’m also back to packing lunches. As much as possible, I try to keep their lunches healthy, yummy, and homemade. Especially the treats and cookies. I like to know what ingredients my kids are eating, and the only way to do this is to make them myself. Plus, I love to bake!
These chocolate chip cookies have been made in my kitchen countless times, and they are a family favourite!

Hi I'm Jo-Anna! I mom. I blog. I cook. I craft. I like pretty things.







Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I give it 5 stars for easiness to make and taste. Me and hubby whipped up a batch of these in a mere minutes and they were fantastic! One of the best things about this recipe is that it is a small batch – great for just the two of us. This recipe has definitely made it into the binder.
I just made these Jo, OMG soooo good!
