Chipotle Cream Chicken.

This recipes packs a punch! Heat level can definitely be customized. Here's what I learned:

I debated dicing or not dicing the chipotle peppers. I went with the recipe and put them in whole. Much easier and still tasted great!
If you don't like spicy try using one pepper instead of two.
I added a few spoonfuls of adobo sauce.
Served it in tortillas with cheddar cheese, guacamole, and a side of yellow rice and black beans.

The title says it all. I found this recipe many years ago and it changed my cookie making world! Here's what I learned:

If you use a 1/4 cup measuring cup you will have beautiful bakery sized cookies. Pretty enough to wrap and give as gifts. One cookie is like a meal. These suckers will take approximately 13-17 minutes to bake (depending on your oven of course).
If you prefer an average sized cookie use a cookie scoop like this: OXO Good Grips Cookie Scoop. Works great and they bake in approximately 10 minutes.
Use unsalted butter and make sure to melt it.
When the edges just start to brown and the middle looks lighter and almost undercooked they are done!
