This week’s cookie is the perfect recipe to roll out just days before Halloween. For one thing, they are all about the chocolate. And let’s be real–who doesn’t dig through their candy haul at the end of the night in search of something chocolatey? (I was all about those Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and Snickers …
I feel like the idea of Monster Cookies has become so familiar that there should be a great story out there to explain just how they got their name.
