Happy Sunday, guys! We have been on a major chocolate chip cookie binge at our house this summer. B is always asking me to make a batch – it’s so sweet I can’t say no (not that I would say no to homemade chocolate chip cookies anyway ;).  I’m always open to new recipes so I’ve been looking for some new desserts to try and wanted to share some very yummy and very much worth-every-calorie desserts. Warning: chocolate ahead.
