These are some of my all-time favorite cookies. I haven't made them in awhile, so I decided they'd be a good pick for our Wednesday community group. I'm kind of disappointed because I can't find the recipe I used to use to make these and I loved that recipe. Instead, I grabbed the first one I could find and went with it. Thankfully, they still turned out awesome and I'll probably continue to use this recipe in the future.
I made the dough on Monday and refrigerated it overnight because I was too tired from my "girls night in" dinner to stay up and bake all of the cookies. After letting the dough warm up on the counter for about 5 minutes, it was softened enough to grab spoonfuls of dough. I don't think the long fridge time did anything to affect their consistency or taste, and based on how many cookies were eaten tonight, I'd say everyone agreed!
Ryan's work group is celebrating "Boss's Day" tomorrow, so I'll be sending the rest of these to work with him!
