The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies

The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies

These chocolate chip cookies, I’m convinced (as are many others), are the best chocolate chip cookies on the planet. This is the fourth or fifth time I have made them and I love them more each time.

Egg Nog Ice Cream

It was my first year making many of the Thanksgiving Day treats all by myself. One of the first things to cross off my list was the ice cream! This I knew I could make ahead and it wouldn’t suffer a loss in flavor. Ice cream is one of my very favorite things to make,
