"I wanted to use up my miniature chocolate chips, and I found this recipe in My Great Recipes. I like the smaller chocolate chips better because you get a more even distribution of walnuts, chocolate, and cookie dough. I made this with butter. I used the butter wrapper to grease the pans (just say no to cooking spray and save money). I also made my cookies a tad bigger. Yum!"

I love to try new recipes, and this is a wonderful site to find new additions. I rarely make the same thing twice because it's so much fun to try something different. My life long dream is to travel the world and eat my way around it.
