chocolate chip cookies

Cookies, ah - the joy of life.  Warm, chocolatey goodness can always make the day feel so much better. What I love about these cookies is that they only make 8. This is helpful for those that have low self-control. If you make a batch of cookies and have 24 tempting cookies waiting for you to eat, it will most likely end in disaster with you eating more than you wanted to. This recipe works for me when I am in the mood for a good chocolate chip cookie but only want a few. It has simple ingredients, is a healthier version of a chocolate chip cookie and still tastes great!

All I can really say is yum. Super yum!
