My husband has been begging me to make these cookies over and over. No…wait, ‘Whining’ is the appropriate verbiage as follows:
- “MAKE SURE you use the mini-M&M Chocolate Candies and the mini chocolate chips, nothing else.” — he says.
- “NO other add-ins! That’s it!” — he says. No chocolate chips, nothing else!” (except I put mini chocolate chips in, so there and he didn’t notice!)
Sometimes, my ‘better half’ can sometimes drive me insane about his obsessing about his cookies and he doesn’t let it go until he gets them, and then he’s as sweet as can be. Like those sweet and sour patch kids. ugh.. He also loves these Perfect Thin & Crispy Chocolate Chip Cookies too!
