Welcome To Day 13 Of “25 Days Of Christmas Sweet Treats”!
Last year I did “25 Days Of Christmas Cookies“. Please click the link to find all those wonderful recipes and please check back here every day for Christmas Sweet Treats all the way up until Christmas Day!
Today was the best Friday I’ve had in a long while. My husband was home early from work and we got to spend some great quality time together.
We spent the day watching Christmas stuff while stringing popcorn to put on the Christmas tree! It really was fun and the tree looks wonderful.
It is weird to think I have never made, let alone ate a chocolate chocolate chip cookie before. I honestly thought I would not care for it too much seeing I don’t like to many chocolate baked goods but wow was I surprised at how delicious they were! I even tried the batter and knew they would be yummy,haha!
I used holiday themed chocolate chips in them to make them more Christmassy too! I will be making these more often now that I know I love them.
Merry Christmas!!
