lime2Think chocolate chip cookies but with a festive holiday twist. My kiddos love these. Santa will, too!

1 3/4 cups flour

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1) Combine all ingredients in the order listed. Mix well.

Step 2) Drop using a tablespoon onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Leave at least 1 inch between cookies. Sprinkle tops with green sugar if desired (optional).

Step 3) Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes, until bottoms begin to brown. Allow to cool on the pan for 1 minute before transferring to a wire rack.
