I'm pretty sure we are going out. It's been a stressful work week for both of us (I'm caught up in end-of-semester insanity and H has been doing casualty notification training), and neither of us feels like cooking tonight.
So a relaxing date night with a few drinks is what's on the table I think.
And salted chocolate chunk cookies for dessert. Using Guittard super cookie chips instead of chopped chocolate because they were a hell of a lot cheaper than half a pound of chocolate (and were on sale).
How are the cookies, texture-wise? I like a pretty soft cookie, myself, so I'm always looking for a recipe. My husband has vowed to only bake cookies at home, since we got a mixer. I don't bake sweet things. As a result, we pretty much never have cookies. But I can point him to this recipe if they don't turn out too crispy - or if you have another cookie recipe to suggest.
I think I'm just going to have cookies for dinner. Because OMG. These are cakey and delicious but still have a little bit of crunch.

You know, I need a disclaimer when I post these "HEY tell me what to have for dinner!" threads because really....you...you're just SHOWING OFF!!!
Haha, sorreh! The fish is super duper easy. Actually, so are the cookies.
Hmm I might make those cookies tomorrow. It's supposed to rain all day so I told Scarlett we could bake cookies. They look delicious! I have a similar recipe but it's more of a pain in the ass with browned butter and some other stuff, so that's perfect.

Okay, I had some time this afternoon, and I thought I would make these as a nice surprise for when my H comes home tomorrow. I've probably eaten 2 cookies worth of dough, so they were lucky to make it to the oven. They might be my dinner tonight. I also used the mini peanut butter cups from Trader Joes instead of dark chocolate. #ThisIsWhyImFat

So you'll be over soon? I'll trade you a slice of whiskey cake.
