Cookie Dough

Thanks to Carol Scott's post on FB, I'm now making enough cookie dough to eat some now for a "snack" and have some later so we can have pizzookies for dessert tonight.  YUMMY!!!  Hmmm I think the family will be singing praises tonight...  LOL

Pizzookie
Make your favorite cookie dough
Cook in jumbo sized muffin tins until they're almost done (you want the center to be a little gooey)
Straight from the oven put a large scoop of vanilla ice cream on top and you have perfection!

Chocolate Chip Cookies
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 egg
1 teaspoon almond extract (a note on almond extract - I get this from smart & final, it's real extract.  I also add this to pancakes & waffles with a bit of cinnamon a small change with a big taste improvement)
2 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup nuts
12 oz chocolate chips

Heat oven to 375.  Mix sugars, butter, egg and almond extract.  Mix in baking soda and salt.  Then flour (dough will be stiff).  Stir in nuts and chocolate chips.  Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheet.  Bake 8-10 min. or until light brown. (center will be soft).  Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet.
