Thick & Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

I made these last night. At first I decided to try a bite to make sure it was edible. Then it was so delicious I had another bite. Then an hour later because I had already eaten half a cookie, I ate the other half. I failed my 100 days without sugar. Major dissapointment in myself. I am not sure yet if I will start over or just keep going. But I have to say it was worth cheating for these cookies. They were delicious. I saw them here. I followed the directions exactly, even the melted butter and rolling the dough in a ball and then breaking in half to place on cookie sheet.

Fruit Pizza

This was the best! 1 pkg. pre-made sugar cookie 1 small cool whip 1 8 oz. cream cheese 1/2 cup sugar Fruit-Any kind you want, fresh or frozen My turn for dinner Sunday. So I made this in the morning. Refrigerated until we ate at 6pm, and the frozen fruit was perfect. On a pizza sheet spread the cookie dough. I had just pulled it out of the fridge and it was stiff (microwave 10 sec) Much easier to spread. Blend 1/2 c. sugar with the cream cheese. Add the whip cream blend some more. Spread this over the cookie dough. Then add the fruit. I bought 2 small bags of frozen berry blend (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries). This was so good. Not too healthy, but very good. Also, because this was my day to allow sugar, Randy took all the leftovers to our neighbors so I wouldn't be tempted with leftovers.
