Unfortunately, because of sickness, I did not get to bake anything. With throbbing sinuses and a fever, I did not think it was the best idea to consume anything I made with germy hands.

LUCKILY, my fiancé came to the rescue one night when I wanted cookies. Yes. Cookies. When I'm sick I want the weirdest things. Usually my go-to cookies are the Lorna Doone shortbreads I keep in the cabinet for times likes these. Unfortunately, they were stale. =/ Instead, Keith made me my absolute favorite cookies fresh out of the oven: chocolate chip!
They look SOOO good, right? Warm and chocolatey, melt-in-your-mouth. Magical. Rich. Fabulous. I could go on and on. The recipe Keith used to make me these wonderful masterpieces?
;D
Pillsbury's own secret goodness. Just preheat the oven to 350 F and set for about fifteen minutes! This is my one non-homemade indulgence I allow myself because I cannot get my chocolate chip cookies this heavenly. I do have a recipe a friend gave me to try because I was venting about how I hadn't found a chocolate chip cookie recipe I liked yet, but I was not going to have Keith try it when I was not around to supervise.
The other great thing about these cookies? Even your baking inept fiancé can handle making them for you when you're out of commission. They are screw-up proof!
I just wish I could have tasted them =/ Colds screw everything up!
you are going to have talented baking babies! haha but i do hate when you can't taste anything with colds! it's awful!
ReplyDeleteI love chocolate chip cookies, all warm from the oven. I also love raw chocolate chip cookie dough, cold from the fridge. That bucket-o-dough doesn't stand a snowball's chance (in oven hell) of surviving the weekend in my kitchen. Glad you're feeling better!
