Theres always a need for a chocolate chip cookie, dont you think?
Come to think of it, I really dont know an occasion in life that doesnt call for one. Bad day? Eat a cookie. Good day? Celebrate with a cookie. Headed back to school? Bake some cookies. Home alone on a Friday night? Bake more cookies.
You see? In my book, chocolate chip cookies are just a necessary part of life.
I added sweet dried bing cherries to my standard cookie recipe for a fun little twist this time and absolutely loved the result! Gooey dark chocolate + chewy, tart cherries? Yes, please. Also, the use of only brown sugar in the dough makes for an exceptionally chewy cookie with an almost caramel-like flavor. They really are the best of the best and I hope you make them soon!
You'll agree it's always a good time for a snack with one look at these ooey-gooey cookies from Jenna Weber of Eat, Live, Run. See the full post at the Fresh Tastes Blog.
