Chocolate Chip Sprinkles Cookies
My childhood summers consisted of chocolate chip sprinkles cookies and copious amounts of ice cream, and most times they ended up sandwiched together. Chips Ahoy had “Sprinkled” cookies, the happy little box of these said sprinkles cookies and before leaving for vacation my mom would make sure she picked up a few of them to keep my niece and I happy while on vacation. It was nothing short of divinity, enjoying these cookies after being in the pool and beach all day and donning a nasty sunburn. As all things put out by large companies, they fade. Yes, the revered sprinkles cookies were gone as fast as they came. Cue all of these years later, my nostalgia teamed up with my curiosity and here we are. The remedy to my sadness from all of these years without my beloved cookies, this here recipe. These make me really, really happy and I hope that they bring you the same happiness! Pair them with my vanilla bean ice cream to make all of your dreams come true!
