52 Weeks of Cooking- Week Eleven Part One

With chocolate chips, for the party.

Without, the practice batch.

So this weekend (tomorrow actually!) is my best friends birthday. She is having a party Saturday. We were talking and she was asking me how my cooking challenge is going {great, thanks for asking =) } and she asked if I wouldn't mind making a few things for her party.

EEP! Talk about my first real challenge. I mean, it's one thing to make food for my co-workers or just myself. They don't have to eat it and I'm not really cooking to please them. I just happen to share it with them.

But this is a party... for a bunch of my friends. Who if they don't like this, then they won't have any desserts to eat (she might buy a cake though, I'm not sure).

Did I mention the eep!

So I'm trying out a new recipe I have been really wanting to make, but haven't gotten around to it. I figured I should try this out before the party.

And let me tell you, it's a good thing I tried this out before hand because I just put in my last pan and I only got...12 cookies. And they're not huge cookies either. Normal size cookies.

I'll have to at least double, if not triple the recipe for the party...
