Chocolate Chip/ Walnut Craisin Cookies
Prep Time: 15 mins Baking Time: 9 mins
Even as a teenager I liked to bake. I would make these cookies constantly for my high school boyfriend (& for my best friend who would give them to her boyfriend & pretend she made them).
I used to follow the original Nestle Toll House recipe because let's be honest, it's the best, but have since upgraded it a bit. I've found you don't need nearly as much sugar & I love using flours other than refined white flour to add in nutrients & avoid a blood sugar spike.
I promise these won't disappoint.
Most of the time I make them using chocolate chips but during the holidays I like to use walnuts & craisins. White chocolate chips or crushed candy canes are a popular addition as well!
