Yes, week Ten of In The Cookie Jar passed by without any cookies being baked...
But, in my defense, I didn't forget! It has just been a busy past couple of weeks for us!
Luckily, my kids didn't have to go without.
(As if it would have killed them to have to go without cookies for a week? Hardly! But it does make them happy and I did make a promise!)
What I wasn't anticipating when I began my weekly filling of the cookie jar, was how many cookies I would be able to freeze and save for later! So, like last week, when there wasn't a free day to bake, I just grabbed a bag of frozen (but still homemade!) Snickerdoodle's and the kids never knew the difference!
Whew!
This week I had to use what ingredients I had in the pantry. Ellison got sick yesterday and running to the store today wasn't an option. After looking through the top rated cookie recipes on AllRecipes.com I found this recipe for:
Soft Chocolate Cookies
A simple recipe with few ingredients that was perfect for add-in's!
We had a bag of Mint Chips in the freezer just begging to be used!

No complaints from the kids either!
