More cookies.... What Can I say?

I made Chocolate Cookies last week and they disappeared so quickly, even though I packaged 1/2 of them up & put them in the freezer.. Dear Husband found them & WE ate almost every one. I need to take some with me to the Beach next week.. So Since the weather is SNOW I decided to make some more today, including his favorite "Oatmeal Raisin"

(But instead of making just those I made another batch of My favorite the chocolate chip.. )Sneaky huh?  I must find a better hiding place for these.)

Oatmeal raisin sounded kinda boring to me so I added in place of the raisins dried cherries & dried cranberries with a few  roasted macadamia nuts tossed in... Yummy!

You may need to find  your own hiding place....they will disappear sooner than you think....
