Yep! Chocolate Chip Cookies, but not just any ordinary Choc Chip Cookies! This recipe I only use ONCE a year, Christmas time. My Sister-in-Law says this is her favorite cookie and looks forward to them every year.
Today is Day 2 of LifeAmorFamily’s 12 Days of Baking and Candy Making. I’ve been working hard to make these recipes happen for you all. I really hope you enjoy them. To see Day 1’s Milk Chocolate Almond Clusters, click here!
I forget how I ended up making the cookies this way but my fondest memory was when my Husband’s cousins were in town from Thousand Oaks. It was right before Christmas and I needed to whip up a dessert, fast. I got into my Christmas Recipes and made a quick batch of these Chocolate Chip Cookies. Total crowd pleaser! They were in Awe of how fast they were made.

Cream together Butter and Sugars until smooth. Beat in the Eggs one at a time. Stir in the Vanilla. Dissolve the Baking Soda in the 2 tsp of Hot Water. Add the Baking Soda Mixture and Salt to the batter. Stir in the Flour and Chocolate Chips.
Drop Spoonfuls onto a Parchment Paper lined cookie sheet. I like to use a small Ice Cream Scooper.
