Candy Bar Chocolate Chip Cookies

In February, I traveled back to the great state of Texas, land of my youth, for a quick visit. I stayed with my Aunt Laura, Uncle Dan, and cousin, Grace. They are a lovely bunch with a healthy appetite for good food and fun.

My grandmother, Meeno, had a thing for trolls. Aunt Laura carries on the tradition of troll-love.








Teenagers who make cookies at 9 pm on a Sunday kick ass. I speak from experience.


Best.cookies.ever. Make them now. They remind me of a similar batch my bestie SayBay and I made in high school- chocolate chip cookies with crushed up thin mints in them. It's Girl Scout cookie time- get to baking, kids!
