    Make some cookies for Santa! I have it on good authority that these are Santa's favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies.

    cookies-for-santa this awesome idea!

    Plus, the dough freezes well so we are going to make up a big batch and get them ready to leave out on Christmas Eve.

    This recipe is our go-to Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe, but if you want a quicker option, try out these Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars! Thanks Andrea for sharing this amazing recipe a few years ago. It was the winner of our The Best Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe Contest.
