Sweet and salty chocolate chip cashew cookies. The perfect snack to bring to work or school.
I was about to buy pumpkin. I really was. But then I walked down the nut aisle, and I saw the cashews.
I must admit, whenever I see cashews, I forget about most other things. I suddenly wanted to make some sweet and salty cookies. Some sweet and salty cookies with cashews in it.
Since I’m going to do my two week practicum tomorrow teaching high school math, I needed to de-stress with some baking.
And stress eating. Seriously, I don’t think these cookies will last until morning. They are that good.
