Spring Chocolate Chip Cookies
There is just something about a chocolate chip cookie that no one can resist!  We love these  Spring Chocolate Chip Cookies because they are a fun twist on a classic, incorporating the colors of spring with the deliciousness of our favorite cookie!
These cookies are a huge hit with the kids, because – well everyone loves cookies – but mostly because they have all the fun colors. Not only are they excited to eat yummy chocolate chip cookies, they enjoy comparing to see who gets what colors in each cookie! This classic recipe is just another reason to love Nestle Toll House chips since they are easy to make and always perfect fresh from the oven.
Spring Chocolate Chip Cookies
Grab your ingredients and aprons, and get the kids in the kitchen to help you make these yummy cookies. Not only is it simple to mix them up, but it is always fun to sneak a lick of the spoon before you wash up. This is a great way to teach kids about measurements, cleanliness in the kitchen and even sanitation.  Every room of the house can be a classroom, especially the kitchen!
