Who couldn't use a good chocolate cookie right about now?
These are easy - no mixer required - and richly delicious. The ingredient list is pantry friendly, baking is a happy-making activity, and eating chocolate cookies is too! By the way, Turbinado sugar is not a must. Regular sugar will work and if you have any sanding sugar leftover from Christmas cookies, that will work too. Enjoy!OLIVE OIL CHOCOLATE COOKIES
