Chocolate Chip Cookie Sticks

So there I was, around 9pm the other night, when out of nowhere my daughter tells me she needed to bring cookies to school in the morning.  *Sigh*  I really hate when that happens.

So I started brainstorming my memory banks for a fast cookie recipe and this one came to mind.  It was perfect for this situation because you don't have to wait for butter to soften to room temperature, the dough is easily mixed by hand, and all 36 cookies bake on one sheet pan in less than 10 minutes.  Oh and they're super cool looking too.

Mix the dough and divide it into two equal portions.

Pat each portion into a 3x15-inch rectangle.

You don't have to do this, but I like to use a pastry scraper to make the edges nice and neat.

Chocolate chips are gently pressed into the cookie dough before baking.

The baked cookie rectangles are allowed to cool for 5 minutes before removing from the sheet pan. Allow cookie rectangles to cool completely before cutting into 1-inch wide sticks. For best results, use a serrated knife.

Now grab a beverage and dunk away. Enjoy!
