I love this cookie. It's my favorite go-to cookie when I'm in a pinch. I always have the ingredients on hand to quickly throw some in the oven. I made this cookie a lot in college - especially when I was having a rough day. Make some today and share them with a friend, you'll brighten their day! :)
