I am asked often by my children if they can assist me in the kitchen. A lot of time I have to turn them away because a) I’m in a hurry, b) I know I’m short on patience, c) if you let 1 help then the other 3 want to join in the fun too or d) all of the above. So it is a special afternoon if we are able to all get together in the kitchen and bake up something delicious. Nestlé® Toll House® Morsels recently gave us the chance to do just that – we decide to use their semi-sweet chocolate chunks and the kitchen gadget collector in me lovely adores the new set of measuring cups and spoons.
It was a chilly, cloudy afternoon when we gathered around the mixer while my youngest was napping. They all took turns measuring and dumping, switching on the mixer and scooping out the dough. I kept catching them trying to sneak a taste of the dough…I have no idea where they get that from {wink wink}! We tried a new cookie recipe and it was everything you would dream a triple chocolate oreo chunk cookie would be – SUPER CHOCOLATY and especially amazing warm from the oven!
And obviously we are a family full of beater lickers…who can resist fresh cookie dough?! The great thing about making cookies with so many little helpers is that there is plenty of turns for dropping that dough on the baking sheet.
I love this picture…I may enlarge it and hang it in my kitchen, this is a great example of their different personalities and it just makes me want to squeeze them all real tight! So in summary, the chocolate lover in your life will love you to pieces for making these for them and you will have about 4 dozen or so…plenty for sharing (or freezing for later should you wish to keep them all for yourself!)
