Valentine's Day Treats

Valentine's Day would not be complete without some fun treats to share with friends. I made some chewy chocolate chippers using the back of the Trader Joes Chocolate Chips bag. Then I made some buttercream frosting and tinted some purple and piped on lots of hearts. They went over great with my co-workers and Gary's co-workers said he hadn't ever had cookies that good. Yay!! Total V-Day Win!!
Chocolate Chip Cookies
2.25 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
0.5 cup granulated sugar
1 cup softened butter
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
1 package Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Directions: Preheat oven to 375F. Cream sugars, butter and vanilla. Add eggs beating until just mixed. Add dry ingredients 0.5 cup at a time. Mix in chips. Drop by tablespoon full onto parchment covered cookie sheet. Bake for 12-15 min. I made about 3 dozen cookies but that will vary depending on how big of a heaping tablespoon you used.
