Mocha Chocolate Chip Cookies
Add a little coffee to the cookie batter and kick things up a notch with this easy recipe for mocha chocolate chip cookies!
I really really wish I liked to drink coffee, but I just don’t like it. It would be SO much more convenient. Coffee is pretty much everywhere you turn, and us poor second class citizen tea drinkers are doing great if we can find some lukewarm hot water and a tea bag.
However, I mysteriously DO like the taste of coffee when it is baked into things.
Say, for example, chocolate chip cookies.
There’s few things in life better than a full cookie jar on your kitchen counter, don’t you think?

What a wonderful-sounding cookbook! :D
My favorite cookies would have to be gooey and warm oatmeal chocolate chip!
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip!
Macarooooooooons! Years and years ago there was a mini-mall in the basement of the Pentagon. If I had to go there, I'd always try to time it so I could visit the bakery there on Macaroon Day. YUM!!
My favorite cookie is chocolate chip. Yum!
I love good old chocolate chip cookies. But they have to be big, and adding oatmeal and m and m's doesn't hurt. Oh, and peanut butter added is great, too!
My favorite cookie is, by far, a chewy chocolate chip.
