Make Your Day Fabulous !

Good Morning ! !

OK - so the plan for today is to choose to make your day fabulous.  Go ahead, it's ok - do something today that makes you happy.  And please don't tell me you can't because. . . blah, blah, blah. . . 

Keep a positive attitude and enjoy life -- smile, have some chocolate -- whatever it takes - just get out of your run of the mill day and do something - just one thing - today that you enjoy. 

Here, maybe a cookie will help.  : )  If not for you, then make someone else happy today and you will be happy too.


Great Chocolate Chip Cookies  
Makes: 24 cookies

Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup packed brown sugar 1/2 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Stir together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the vegetable oil, brown sugar and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla and almond extracts. Blend in the dry ingredients, then fold in the chocolate chips. Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.   Love my cooking stone for cookies - No more burnt cookies : )
