It’s hard to beat a warm chocolate chip cookie with a glass of cold milk, though a brownie might match it. I’ve also got the best Christmas holiday cookies as certified by my family and friends!
Although it’s been over 50 years since I stood in the kitchen helping my mother bake these cookies, I remember like it was yesterday, Mom putting on her yellow flowered apron, gathering all the ingredients and going to town.

This buttery rich, tender cookie is just perfect when you’re looking for a little snack.
