NYE dessert suggestion: a bowl of fancy vanilla bean ice cream and a few slices of this stuff - which, as a bonus, are extremely easy to make and respectably inexpensive.

Every year on Christmas Eve, I make a Coffee Table Picnic For Two. What I'm serving up tomorrow night: three of our all-time favorites.

Help! My Chocolate Chip Cookies Are Disastrous
Q. Hey Jordan,
I love your blog and thought you may be able to provide some insight into why my chocolate chip cookies always LOOK HORRIBLE! They taste good...but I can never get a nice little fluffy cookie that doesn't crumble apart.
I follow the recipe on the Nestle Toll House chocolate chip bag exactly, and yet my cookies always spread out and wind up flat and crispy.
I'm a good cook so I don't know why I'm having such a problem with chocolate chip cookies!
