Do you guys know what today is? I can’t believe I didn’t already know this…
It’s National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day!
Thanks for the heads up, Monica. 
I’m super bummed that I literally just found out about this because now I have to go into work, yet all I want to do is stay home and bake chocolate chip cookies. Crap.
Well, in case you happen to have some free time on your hands this evening, feel free to try out some of my favorite varieties of Chocolate Chip cookie recipes:
- Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Surprise Cookies (shown above)
- Chewy Chocolate Chip Heath Bar Cookies
- Crispy Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Banana Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies (a healthier alternative)
- Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups with Almond Buttercream Frosting (a FAVORITE, shown below)
Aaaaaand now all I want is cookies. Oooof.
Lunch
Since last night’s Chicken Caesar Burger recipe made four glorious servings, there was no question as to what was headed my way come lunch time.
I heated up a leftover burger, topped it with some light Caesar dressing, a sprinkle of freshly shredded parmesan, and served it over a bed of romaine.
On the side, I had a small serving of steamed carrots, cauliflower, and broccoli, also topped with a bit more of pretty parmesan.
And to finish things off with a bit of sweetness, I had a few chunks of a cantaloupe that I cut up earlier this morning.
It’s definitely a delicious cantaloupe…but it’s no chocolate chip cookie.
I’m off to work – hope everyone has a great night! And hey, have a cookie for me, would ya?
Does eating fruit over a cookie officially make you an adult? I don’t think I am ready for that justttttt yet ;)
If I had had a cookie, I would have eaten it. Trust me ;-)
Unfortunatly I just found that out too! I was at a wedding this weekend and instead of cake they passed around warm chocolate chip cookies though, so I “celebrated” early! ;)
I don’t have any cookies, but I do have frozen yogurt that is cookies & cream flavor haha! I guess that will have to do! ;)
oh, i have a bag of chocolate cookies at home! i think i’ll break it open today just for the occasion!
That’s so funny, because I literally just made a batch of chocolate chip cookie dough :) Your chicken caesar burgers sound awesome, we loved your chicken parmesan ones!!
Woohoo! I just wrote a celebratory post myself!
Oh my goodness. My fiance’s nickname for me is “cookie”…I sent him this info in hopes he’ll arrive home with a big cookie for me.
I really think I need to try all your cookie recipes for “research” ;)
How do people find out about these awesome food holidays? I want in on that secret. Unfortunately, now I have no time to prepare any fun cookie recipes. Lame.
Why was I not told about Chocolate Chip Cookie Day! I want some right now!
Okay I had no idea either…clearly I need to make up for it today :)!
I really want to try this cookies sounds like good to eat..Thanks for sharing..
I most definitely had a chocolate chip cookie last night for dessert! I’m glad that I remembered about it :)
I have some bananas that are the perfect ripeness, so they oatmeal chocolate chip cookies are calling my name!
Mmm cookies! :)
Those cupcakes look delicious! I had no idea it was chocolate chip cookie day!
