I’m not very good and remembering or celebrating food holidays, but one of my favorite desserts on the planet is a warm, chewy chocolate chip cookie. I think it has something to do with the simplicity of a chocolate chip cookie and the nostalgia having eaten them a lot as a kid. If it were up to me, I would have freshly-baked chocolate chip cookies in the house every day*, if not for the taste but for the amazing smell they leave throughout your house.
Since today is National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day, I dug out my favorite recipes from the E&C archives in case you need another reason to celebrate!

*Since I can’t eat chocolate chip cookies every day, I satisfy my sweet tooth with Quest bars now and again. I’ve mentioned my love for Quest bars before, but I recently tried their Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough flavor and Oh. My. Gosh. They are good. I try and focus on eating whole foods as snacks as often as possible, but when I’m traveling or running errands all afternoon, nutrition bars with a clean ingredient label are a close second.
**Quest bar sent me these bars for my review. Opinions are real and strictly my own. Quest bars are something I normally purchase with my own money and genuinely love.
