Simple & Delicious Chocolate Chip Cookies

I was in a time rut today to make a dessert for a party during class at school tomorrow, but my number one go-to dessert is the recipe for these chocolate chip cookies. They're a little but smaller in size, but they're moist and soft. I've made these for a student council bake sale before and they were a big hit!


Ingredients:
•1 cup butter (room temp.)
•1 cup brown sugar
•1/2 cup sugar
•2 eggs
•1 tsp. baking soda
•1 tsp. salt
•2 tsp. vanilla
•2 cups chocolate chips

Mix everything up together---start with the butter and end off with flour and then the chocolate chips. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes per batch. This recipe should make about 4 dozen.

Pre-game Snacks

One of my favorite pre game snacks are called energy bites. The ingredients are:

•1 cup dry oatmeal
•1/2 cup chocolate chips
•1/2 cup peanut butter
•1/3 cup honey
•1 tsp. vanilla
You could bake them if you prefer to, but they taste delicious just rolled up into balls and popped into the fridge! Some of my other favorite pre game snacks are:
•peanut butter & jelly sandwiches
•yogurt covered raisins
•any kind of fruits
•chex mix/pretzels
These foods are some of my personal favorites to get me completely pumped up to play soccer.
