There are a couple grad parties, it's the weekend and I had a request.....enough reasons? Maybe maybe not. Or simply I just like to bake. Keeping that thought in mind I do not find many recipes I don't like baking or trying out...only a handful come to mind when I think of it. Chocolate chip cookies are always one of those. I have been getting better with them lately but for some reason something is always messed up, under baked or over baked. Last time I baked them they were perfect this time .... I had a variety of a tad crisper and a tad in the middle...we can just say I am aiming to please all ( my family likes them burned anyways). Oh well here is a new recipe I concocted (very similar to my favorite double tree cookies .....that I am now craving....I see a vacation in my future). Enjoy!

- Ingredients:
- 2 Sticks unsalted butter, softened
- 1 and 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
