Chocolate Peanut Fudge

This fudge recipe is simple and only requires three or four ingredients.  I have no clue where I got this recipe from.















1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 pkg milk chocolate chips
3 large snicker candy bars cut into small chunks (I use 4)
nuts optional

Melt all ingredients together in sauce pan.  Be careful, it scorches easily.  When all melted, pour into 8x8 dish.  I would suggest buttering the dish because I have a hard time getting it out when the dish is not buttered.

Chocolate Chip Cookies

I use the recipe off the back of the Nestle Toll House bag of chocolate chip and typically double the recipe as one batch just isn't enough.  The posted recipe is for one batch only.

The recipe (not doubled) says it makes 60 cookies but that all depends on what size you make them.
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 9 minutes
Cooling time: 15 minutes

INGREDIENTS:
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 cups (12-oz. package) Nestle Toll House Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
1 cup chopped nuts (I have never put these in as my family isn't a big fan of nuts)

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.  Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in small bowl.  Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy.  Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.  Gradually beat in flour mixture.  Stir in chocolate chips and nuts.  Drop by rounded teaspoon onto ungreased baking sheets.  Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown.  Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

Recipe states: May be stored in refrigerator up to 1 week or in freezer up to 8 weeks.  I leave my cookies set on the counter in a covered container until they are gone.
