And apparently ice cream!

There are places I can get it, but I’m not a huge spreads person at the best of times. I’d probably use it for the same thing I use Nutella - icing cupcakes.

I have a terrific sweet tooth and that cookie butter is way, way too sweet for me. I gave it away and the person I gave it to threw it out.

Chocolate Chip, specifically the Best-Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe on pg.149 of the Southern Living cookbook. Fresh from the oven, just barely cooled enough to eat. :drools:

Dammit, I’m trying to lose a little weight here!

chocolate chip.

it can be a multicookie.

it can me made thin and crispy. it can be made ticker and cakey.

it also can vary on when eaten and how stored.

it can be nutified. no sprinkles though, that’s stepping over the line.

Yup, me too. I will never understand why some folks think they need to decide whether to put raisins or chocolate chips in their oatmeal cookies. Put both!
