Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies
Just 15 Minutes!

Kids just love chocolate chip cookies!

This chocolate chip cookie recipe is easy and quick. We love having our kids help make the dough, drop the cookie dough onto the baking sheet and scoop them off onto the cooling racks. They love making the cookies together and they are so excited about eating the cookies they helped make.
Make all of them in one go or keep the dough in the fridge for a week or the freezer for a couple of months until you want to make them.

We are not sure if eating only one of these cookies is ever enough or even possible? See if you can stop after having just one of them.

In just 3 quick and easy recipe steps, these chocolate chip cookies will be ready for your family to enjoy.
