chocolate chip snicker doodles

Ok, so it's Friday. Which means date night for Chase and I. Which also means movie and sweets night? Yes?! Yes, I think so. Chase invented this recipe by the way, just ask him! He IS the inventor of the "chocolate chip" snicker doodle. No one else, haha. Just him (wink). But for reals, these were super good. And moist, and soft, and chewy, and not hard and crumbly. We leave out the cream of tarter and like the way it tastes better, so up to you whether you want it or not! But, I recommend making these this weekend if not right now. Ok? GO! Oh, and feel free to drink cold milk out of a pretty champagne glass and eat the cookies on satin sheets. Great idea, sorta romantic? Sure, it's date night.
