Mmmmmm, delicious!

My co-worker's (Twyla) husband (Jim) requested some homemade cookies a while back and last week I decided it was the perfect time to make some. A couple of weeks ago some people moved into the house just down the street so I decided to make a double batch of homemade Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies...enough for the new neighbors (as a "welcome to the neighborhood" gift), Jim & Twyla, Doug & Julie (some friends), the linemen, a really nice salesman that was going to be at the NEA the next day, and a few for me!

Earlier this year I found the best Soft Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe. It is the only one I use now and you'll never guess where I found it...recipezaar.com! Did you sense the sarcasm? Yeah, so recipezaar.com is where I get many of my recipes. It's a great site! You should check it out if you haven't yet done so.

This Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe is DELICOUS! The linemen literally devoured their large plate of cookies within fifteen minutes or so! The salesman called today and told Rick (Line Superintendent) to tell me not to make him anymore cookies because he ate his plate all by himself! Twyla told me they were the best cookies she's had in a long time. She also mentioned how hard it was not to eat them all before Jim got any. So...I suggest you try these cookies! You won't regret it...unless, of course, you eat the whole batch by yourself, which may happen. Maybe these cookies should come with a warning.

Warning: These cookies are so devilishly delicious that you may not be able to quit eating them. You might create an addiction! (There, you've been warned!)

Oh, and as far as the new neighbors are concerned, I haven't heard if they liked the cookies or not, but even if they didn't, it felt good to be a nice neighbor. I like to give...it makes me happy to make others happy.
