My husband’s favorite cookie is a chocolate chip cookie so I’m always looking at ways to reinvent the wheel. As you all know I get bored and tired of you making the same recipes. One of his other favorite bedtime snacks is milk and graham crackers. You can only imagine when I came across this recipe I just had to try it. This recipe is truly a marriage of two of his favorite sweets. Believe it or not it beat out his all time favorite dark chocolate chip cookies

This recipe yields 4 dozen cookies

Ingredients :

1.5 cups Graham Cracker crumbs
1.5 cups of sugar
1 cups AP Flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup of chocolate chips (dark is my husbands favorite) but you pick you poison)
1 cup of unsalted butter (two sticks)
2 eggs (local or egglands best)
1 tsp vanilla extract high quality
1 tsp salt
2 tsp baking soda

Preheat oven to 350. Line 1/2 sheet pans with parchment paper.

1. Cream butter and sugar together in stand mixer on medium high speed.
