Best Levain Cookie Recipe

My husband called me and said he had an idea. He suggested we do something different and go shoot pool and play arcade games on a school night, so I was hesitant. But I decide to let go and embrace the spontaneous idea. Our son was pleasantly surprised with the activities and all of us had a blast!

Trying new and different things and being spontaneous is good! Especially when you make these Copycat Levain Bakery Chocolate Chip Cookies! It’s so much fun to watch eyes light up when people see how big these are!
