GITK - White Chocolate Chip Cookies

I almost forgot to post this. Things have been a bit crazy around here. Just found out today that my dear husband has to have emergency surgery on his spinal cord. Ouch! I'd be baking out my stress today if I only had the ingredients!

Sunday I broke down and baked cookies. I'm not the best cookie baker - I always either cook them too long or not long enough. But, as luck would have it, these came out great and got rave reviews at the office. Someone even asked for the recipe, which made me very happy.

I don't have a mixer so I did this all by hand. I just turned on the most recent episode of Grey's Anatomy and stirred away.
