Chocolate chip cookies belong at BBQs. They are portable,
snack-sized, and delicious, plus easy to make in large quantity. Their only—and
I mean only—downfall is that those
tasty chocolate chips can melt in hot sun and high temperatures. But sometimes,
sticky fingers are allowed at a food-filled cookout.

The
Alumni-Faculty BBQ last week was the perfect time to satisfy my baking itch (again)
by whipping up a sweet ending for our gathering. I wanted something easy and
universal, scrumptious and satiating—chocolate chip cookies.

This
recipe from Host the Toast was
perfect. I made a double batch and threw in leftover sprinkles (the top was
lost during a furious baking mini
course) to make them a little more festive. Let me tell you, I wanted to
bathe in that cookie dough. It was sweet and buttery with caramel notes and
chocolate bites, while the rainbow sprinkles added colorful whimsy.

My cookies flew
at the BBQ, but I kept an eye on the giant container hoping some would be left
over. The chewy and soft texture of the cookies was addictive; just one cookie
was not enough. There was just enough chocolate and maybe too many sprinkles
(if that’s a thing) but the result was very very very tasty. Good thing some
came home with me.
So, who’s
inviting me to their next BBQ? I’ll bring cookies…
