Cookie Cake with Vanilla Sauce

Lesson Learned: Before attempting to make chocolate chip cookies- make sure you have the chocolate chips!  We were done making the dough for our cookies when I realized- we didn’t have any chips.  Uh-Oh.  So we improvised and I think the result turned out great!  In fact, I will be making this on purpose from now on!

1/2 c. Sugar
1/2 c. BrownSugar
