Chocolate chip cookies and milk seem to be perfect together. Munching on them while watching TV is as natural as eating popcorn in the theatre, but making your own is even better, because all things home made, just taste great!

2Pre-heat the oven to 350ºF(make sure you take out anything that was in the oven).Advertisement
