If you’d prefer a classic chocolate chip cookie recipe, you’ll definitely want to try The Best Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever.
Now, why would I post a recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies on Real Men Cook Day? Well, I’ll tell you.. because my man can make these Chocolate Chip Cookies .. but he can do it blindfolded! No lie! Before Mike and I were dating, I came down to Texas with his sister for an Easter vacation to visit him. Well, she visited him, I just tagged along. {it was warmer than Wisconsin okay!} Anyways, while on vacation we had gotten on the topic of Chocolate Chip Cookies. Mike told me that he could make some amazing soft Chocolate Chip Cookies. Knowing that he was a guy and most guys can’t cook or bake, I didn’t believe him and kept teasing him. Mike, never known to shy away from a challenge, said that he could not only make the most amazing Chocolate Chip Cookies I had ever tasted. But he could do it blindfolded!
WHAT!?! Game on!
I tied a blindfold around his eyes, placed all the ingredients on the counter in front of him as well as measuring cups. {we were in someone else’s house and he didn’t know his way around the kitchen…I know I was nice} The blindfolded cookie process began. To my surprise he did a pretty good job and didn’t make too much of a mess. This was actually the day that I realized I did have feelings for him. Here is a blast from the past picture that was taken after the blindfolded cookie experience.. he decided to dip me back and put flour all over my face. 🙂
We actually still make his cookie recipe to this day, it was his mom’s who got it from.. Nestle Tollhouse! I have actually changed up the recipe a bit to make it healthier and added some raspberries which is why you have these amazing Raspberry Chocolate Chip Cookies today! They are perfectly soft, and almost have a cake-like texture. So good and perfect with a glass of ice cold milk. {best when hot out of the oven and the chocolate is melting!!}
I dare you to make them blindfolded! 🙂 hehe
