This evening Hayli and I decided to make Chocolate Chip Cookies... Just to give you a little history on my ability to make "non-flat" chocolate chip cookies is pretty BAD!!! For the past 14 1/2 years I have yet to make chocolate chip cookies that don't end up FLAT! They always taste good but they are never a pretty cookie like my sister Nichole makes and another friend. I have followed every kind of recipe and they still never turn out!!! Well tonight Hayli got all the ingredients together and started putting them all together. Well our mixer broke awhile ago and I haven't gotten a new one yet. I told Hayli that we would have to mix them like the PIONEERS did...ALL BY HAND!!! I will just say that my arm is sore from mixing the cookie dough! I guess we should have cut our recipe in 1/2... But the funny thing is.... MY COOKIES WERE PERFECT!!! Can you believe it! I can't!!! I was so excited that I actually had PRETTY COOKIES!!! They were so PERFECT that we even took them to our neighbors for treats! YES I finally found a good recipe so here it is for you all... LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK IF YOU TRY IT!!!

That recipe looks like a double batch! They look so yummy! Good job. I got my recipe for my cookies from my high school home ec class. They don't always turn out perfect either, but I think we're getting it down.
