Happy National Chocolate Chip Day!
I usually only hear about food related days after the fact...but today, I saw that it was National Chocolate Chip day and hit it!
These are Dorie Greenspan's Chunky Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Chocolate Chipsters
(found on page 73 of Dorie's fantastic book, Baking: From My Home to Yours)
They are truly one of my favorite cookies ever! And they are one of Lee's favorites so I made them as a parting baked good to Racheal and Lee (with two bags of frozen cookies are now in the freezer).
Proceed with Caution has the recipe posted here when it was her choice for Tuesdays with Dorie.
I so did not know it was national choc chip day until today. I would have made cookies. Oh well. Your's look wonderful. Love the ice cream sandwich.
ReplyDeleteI love "chipster" as a cookie name! These sound so yummy!!
ReplyDeleteNow I must make chocolate chip cookies to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteI only hear about these after the fact too! Have a safe trip back!
ReplyDeleteDelicious...I didn't know about it being National chocolate Chip day..I too am usually a day late.
ReplyDeleteNational Chocolate Chip Cookie day? I had no idea! I don't have cookies around, but i'll inhale some dark chocolate very shortly!
ReplyDeleteThose were really good cookies! They look beautiful with ice cream sandwiched inbwtn!
ReplyDeleteI am so marking my calender for next year. Oddly enough though, I made choc. chip cookie dough today. I didnt bake them though, I like to let them rest overnight in the fridge as I think they bake better and tastier. Yours look great, what a fab friend you are! And I am new to the blogosphere, and wanted to say thank you for your blog.. I think it's great...
ReplyDeleteoh these look so good. I ve never tried them with ice cream. Looks delicious. I have to try these :)
ReplyDeleteYum this is one of my favourite cookies too.
ReplyDeleteChocolate Chip Day?? I had no idea. I think I'll go grab a handfull of chips and have a small celebration of my own. Cookies look great!
ReplyDeleteI had NO idea, I totally missed National Choc. Chip Day? Pooo...
ReplyDeleteI love your blog!
You seem to know all the food national holidays . . bravo!
ReplyDeleteIt is over a hundred degrees today in Northern CA and that ice cream sandwich looks greeeeeeeat right now. :)
I will have to eat lots of extra chips sicne I am behind. that is ok right?
ReplyDeleteHow could I not have known about this holiday? Thank you for this most vital information, even if I am a tad bit late. I'll have to make up for it later this week :) As for tonight, I've got some chocolate-dipped strawberries made for after dinner. So even though I didn't use chocolate chips, maybe that'll do for my celebration for now. Thanks for the great site!
ReplyDeleteOh, Mary, these ice cream sandwiches look fantastic. What a great way to celebrate national chocolate chip day! I think I could eat way too many of them :) Dangerous! Sorry that I've been an absent commenter; I just finished up my law school exams and am finally getting around to my google reader.
ReplyDeleteI'm the same way! There have been so many food holidays that I would have loved to celebrate but found out after the fact (like Nutella Day)...Glad we both heard about this one!
ReplyDeleteLee is happily chowing down on all of these yummy cookies that you left in our freezer. There are hardly any left! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Lee and I and the kitties miss you. xoxox Racheal
