Yesterday was my husband's birthday and he had a pot luck event at work, so he asked me to make him some chocolate chip cookies to take in. And by some, that meant approximately 150 cookies! And since I was lacking a share-able recipe for this morning, I thought why not share our cookie recipe?

Enjoy!!
We have a 4.5qt KitchenAid stand mixer and I don't remember making a double batch of cookie dough before this Monday when I made the cookies for my husband. Well...once I finished, it looked like it was a little a on the "too much" side for my mixer! lol
