My love for grocery store bakery French bread goes way back. Back to when I was in high school, and I would (no joke!) stop at Albertson’s on my way home from school and buy a loaf of fresh hot bread and eat it on the drive home. Literally, sat it on the passengers seat, …

Chocolate cookies with white chocolate and milk chocolate chips. These triple chocolate cookies are fudgey and delicious! Ohhh these are good. So good that the batch I made the other day is completely gone, and I’m tempted to make them again today. The recipe is slightly adapted from Toll House’s recipe that used to be …
