Ingredients (Makes 24 cookies)

• 3 cups all purpose flour
• 3/4 cups brown sugar
• 1 cup semi sweet mini chocolate chips
• ½ cup chopped almonds
• 1 cup butter
• 3 large eggs

Instructions

1. Place a saucepan on low heat
2. Add butter to the saucepan and melt, then add the brown sugar, stirring occasionally
3. Add the flour to a mixing bowl and pour the melted mixture on top
4. Add the eggs to the mixing bowl and whisk until a soft ball is formed
5. Once the dough has cooled a little, add the chocolate chips and almonds
6. Place a plastic covering over the bowl ad leave in the refrigerator for half an hour
7. Once the dough has cooled completely, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
8. Roll the dough into little balls about ½ inch thick, and set aside
9. Prep a baking sheet by rubbing butter or spraying with a nonstick spray 
10. Place the dough balls onto the sheet, allowing space to expand, and cook for 10 minutes-12 minutes

Technically, this is a 4-ingredient cookie dough, but I love chocolate chips and some extra crunch to my soft cookies. You can add or not add any of those additions, make the dough your own! 

This cook time will give you soft cookies, but not gooey. They are meant to be thick and tall, and they melt like butter. These are great for gatherings, or you can stick them in the refrigerator to keep chilled and add them as a little dessert at the end of each day. I like to make a whole batch for myself and take them as a lunch dessert, a midnight snack, and whenever I’m craving a soft cookie, I have one on hand.
