I had a big craving for cookies yesterday. What do you do when you have such a craving?? You Bake some!
Do you see that huge bowl of lemons?
All of these came off of Sam's lemon tree just this past week...
Why didn't I make LEMON cookies? I never even thought about it.
I am not crazy about Chocolate and do not eat it very often. However, I had a few chocolate chips left over from having made Chocolate chip muffins on Monday.
I also had another bag of unopened Chocolate chips of a different kind. So....I made Chocolate Chip Cookies....
When I was getting my ingredients ready to make the cookies, I actually looked at the wrong recipe on the back of the chocolate chip bag.
I didn't even notice until it came to the cinnamon. I took a double look and the recipe that I was using was for Chocolate Chip Oatmeal cookies......for which I did not have the oatmeal.
I quickly, switched over to the original recipe, which calls for a different spoon size of Baking powder and it included baking soda.
Oooooops
I made a few adjustments and I honestly think these are the best Chocolate Chip cookies I have ever made.
Of course....I have a few in the family who does not want... Puh-cons....Pecans in their cookies. So....what do you do? You Make a batch without the pecans and then you make a batch of the Better Tasting cookies that contains the nuts.

A friend sent me this picture of our sweet family from many years ago....I think we were like 25 or 26.
Oh wow!! We have certainly changed!

Your chocolate chip cookies look really good! And I'll take mine with pecans. ; ) How wonderful that you have a lemon tree at your house. Lemons are so good for us, and you can use them when cooking also. The photo of your family is so dear.
