Story
I used JoyFoodSunshine's chocolate chip cookie recipe as the base and started by cleaning the counter, lining trays, organizing ingredients, and measuring everything before mixing. Over about 3 hours on a weekend, I mixed the dry ingredients separately, creamed the butter and sugars, added eggs and vanilla, then combined everything and split the dough into chocolate chip, coffee, and milk chocolate batches before baking until lightly golden. The cookies came out warm, soft, and delicious, and the time felt fully worth it.
