Chocolate Chip Cookie Brittle- Last Minute Super Bowl Snack


Sorry for the lack of posts this past week.

It's been super busy and my computer decided to malfunction, so I've been without it this week.

I hope you're all having an awesome Super Bowl Sunday.


If you haven't made any dessert, it's not too late to whip this cookie brittle up before the game.  It's super, super good.  It's exactly what the title says; a mixture between a chocolate chip cookie and brittle. It's crunchy and thin like brittle, but the taste is like chocolate chip cookies.  Seriously the perfect mixture.

Want to impress some guests today? Make this!

What are you doing today for the Super Bowl?

    Cookie brittle???  Yes, please, and I hope I get a lot of it stuck in my teeth to enjoy for many hours later. 

    I've been following your blog silently and this is my first time commenting, but I want to let you know that I've nominated you for a Liebster Blog Award.  There's more information on the award going up in my post tomorrow (or it's an easy google search, too).  Congrats and keep on rockin' and cooking!
