If you’ve ever visited Hershey Park, you know the smell is delicious. It’s like chocolate heaven. It’s like they have hired grandma’s just to bake classic chocolate chip cookies!
Briana brings all the goodness into your kitchen with this hack to have cookies on a whim. She uses this recipe on Hershey’s site.
People are busy and finding the time to make cookies can be challenging. During the week it’s a mad schedule, and the cost of ready-made dough is high and the result just not the same. With this recipe and hack, you can make the cookie dough in advance, stick it in the freezer and bake a batch at your leisure. My family loves when I make a dozen cookies at night and yours will be too!
