100th Post!!! New York Times Chocolate Chip Cookies and a Giveaway! It has been almost 6 months since I started this blog, I can hardly believe it! And here we are on my 100th post!
It has been an amazing 6 months. I have so enjoyed getting to know so many wonderful bloggers from all over, and being part of such an amazing and supportive community.
In honor of my first 6 months and first 100 posts, I have for you the New York Times Chocolate Chip Cookies. I know I posted about these a couple of months ago, but they were one of many treats in that post and they are so delicious they deserve a little more attention than they got there.
I am a cookie girl through and through. I love making them and I love eating them. One of the few things my mom baked growing up was chocolate chip cookies (she used a slightly modified Toll House recipe). The memory of eating ccc's is a distinct one from my childhood. They signify home. They are the thing I have baked more than any other by far, though I have always been on the search for the perfect cookie. I am happy to say the search is over. These are my ideal chocolate chip cookie. That is not to say that I won't try out another recipe. I can't imagine that there is a recipe out there that I could possibly love as much as I love this one let alone more, though I suppose there is always a chance...
The recipe can be found here. In addition, I'm giving away an 8x8 stone baking dish! I do all of my baking (with the exception of cakes) in/on baking stones, and I love them. They are completely non-toxic, they bake incredibly evenly and they become more and more non-stick over time and they're made in the USA! I love stone bakeware and I can't say enough good things about it.
Two ways to enter the giveaway:
1. Leave a comment on this post
2. Follow me on Twitter and tweet about my giveaway with a link to this post!
It's that simple! Increase your odds and enter in both places, but only do each one once. The contest will go for one week, and end on Friday, September 25th at midnight. Winner will be chosen using random.org and will be announced on Saturday the 26th.
I hate to be exclusionary, but this is a heavy item so I have to limit this contest to US entrants only. Labels: chocolate, chocolate chip cookies, cookies, giveaways
