I can’t think of a time in our family where there is anyone who didn’t love chocolate cookies. For me whipping out a batch for a birthday or gathering is sometimes just as easy as making cupcakes. I really enjoy baking but, sometimes you just need to bake something easy and quick.

What’s great about cookies though is when cooled you can store them in a tin. Bring them to a picnic, party or set them on a pretty plate to serve. No matter how you dish these cookies up I hope you enjoy making them and eating them.
