Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! These cookies are the perfect treat to make for your Halloween get together. They only take super simple ingredients and are absolutely delicious. They are also perfect for any holiday gathering you have coming up this season. I made them for a Halloween party we had this weekend and they were a hit.
I use maple syrup in this recipe as a natural sweetener. They also help bring moisture to the cookies which I love. You can use any variation of chocolate chips that you prefer. I used dark chocolate chips for this batch, but have used semi-sweet in the past.
Enjoy!
