Best Cookies Recipe Ever!

Hubby LOVES cookies and he loves the chewy ones the best. No matter what I did I couldn't make the cookies perfect. Through experiment I learned that the best way to get a really good cookie is to cook on a stoneware cookie sheet. I only bake on stoneware because everything comes out better on it. I actually don't know why I still have my old metal pans.
First measure out your unsalted softened butter and sugar then cream them together. Once it's nice and creamy add in your vanilla and your egg and continue to mix. In my house I use a handheld mixer, mostly because I don't have a stand mixer and I can't do this easily by hand.
Then add in your flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt and mix together. I use a spatula to get it started and then use my hand to finish mixing.
Once all combined well dump in your mini chocolate chips and mix well.
I use the mini chocolate chips because you get more chips throughout the cookie and what is a bite of cookie without a chocolate chip in it?
Now take small chucks of dough and place them on your stoneware cookie sheet. I choose to make our cookies pretty small. No matter what you know you are going to want to eat more than one so why not make them small so you can eat 2 or 3 without feeling guilty.
Oh look at all those YUMMY chocolate chips in those cookies! Time to go enjoy! At least one since these aren't THM approved cookies.
Ingredients: 
3/4 cup softened unsalted butter
3/4 cup brown sugar 
1/4 cup granulated sugar 
2 tsp vanilla extract 
1 egg 
2 cups all purpose flour 
2 tsp cornstarch 
1 tsp baking soda 
1/2 tsp salt 
6 oz bittersweet chocolate chips
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In the bowl cream together softened butter and sugars. Add vanilla and egg and mix some more .
  3. Pour in flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt and mix.
  4. Stir in MINI chocolate chips.
  5. Break off small amounts of dough depending on how large you want your cookies and place on your cookies sheet.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until your liking.  The bottoms will cook well on the stoneware and be easy to take off your pan but the tops will be nice and chewy!
  7. Let cool on an plate or cooling rack until cool enough to eat!
  8. Should make about 4 dozen cookies!

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

Baby Bumpdate: Week 35

35 Weeks! That means only 5 left!!!! Holy cow!!! I think I'm starting to freak out just a little!!! How far along? 35 Weeks! Yea! How big is baby?  He's about 18 inches and just over 5 pounds. Weight gain? I gained a pound last week. Maternity Clothes?  Of course. I'm living in tanks right now because of the heat. Just wish I had more shorts to wear. Stretch Marks?  Nothing new. Just the ones from before and Monkey. Sleep? With this cold I'm not sleeping much. I'm getting a little better and able to sleep about 4 to 6 hours at night and then at nap time I'm able to get 1 or 2 more hours of sleep. However, I'm still exhausted especially because of the heat. It just drains all my energy. Even when I'm sitting in the shade under a fan. Of course it's only June so I'm not sure how this heat thing will effect me in July :/ Best Moment this Week?  Monkey kissing my belly before he went down for a nap. It was so cute. He ...

Media Monday: How it affects my child

Media is neither good or bad. Last week I talked about media in our marriage and a little bit about our family and media but today is all about Rex and media. Rex loves cartoons! Right now he happens to be watching Veggie Tales while eating lunch. This is not a normal thing at all. I can't remember the last time he was eating while watching TV. Today we had a crazy time and he asked to watch a movie and I didn't have a problem with it. Plus it's Veggie Tales.  We have a limit (during mommy in charge time) that he is only allowed to watch one movie/TV show each day and some days we don't watch anything. When daddy gets home things change and the TV is on within minutes of being home. Rex normally doesn't care that the TV is on because of our daily activities. He plays or helps me cook unless daddy is watching adult cartoons then he is more interested.  This past winter I found us watching more TV than I planned ever to let my children watch. So once it start...
