I know I just posted cookies last week, but I have really been in a cookie mode lately. It seems that almost daily I am craving a homemade, warm and fresh from the oven cookie. I’m usually not to particular to what kind of cookie just as long as it is warm and soft and I can eat it with a glass of milk. My kids have found this particular obsession great for them as well. They are constantly coming home from school and finding trays of cookies cooling on the counter.

These particular cookies are amazing. My sweets loving son voted them one of his most favorite kinds of cookies. They were truly a big hit at my house. I may have eaten a few more than I should have, but in my defense, I had to make sure they were good enough to share with all of you. 😉
