The Holy Grail of 4 C’s: Chunky. Chocolate. Chip. Cookies.
Can you believe this was my FIRST TIME EVER baking chocolate chip cookies!?
I knew I’d find a worthy recipes on Pinterest (not Foodgawker!? I know, I know) and I wasn’t wrong. I found this recipe and followed it for some truly THICC chunks.
I’m planning on making it again tomorrow night, but this time actually baking them for about 15 minutes rather than the 25 I left them in for. Don’t ask me why I thought overbaking them was a good idea when I basically live for soft-baked cookies, just follow me on Instagram @vivianapodinaphotography

3 cups + 2 tbsp flour
