I’d like you to meet the chocolate chip cookie to end all chocolate chip cookies.
Dramatic? Perhaps. Completely and utterly, hands-down, one of the best cookies I’ve ever eaten? YES. Once again, tahini-in-baked-goods for the win!

It makes me so happy that every year, Father’s Day falls right around my “blogiversary” – the anniversary of the day I started blogging! My Dad and I have the exact same taste in desserts – with anything warm, gooey, and topped with vanilla ice cream way up on the top of the list. I think this makes the cut, wouldn’t you say?
It’s become a little tradition around here to bake a big decadent dessert with bacon to celebrate another year of life, love, and copious amounts of food on My Bacon-Wrapped Life. If you’ve followed this space for awhile, you know that I am definitely not a cake person – I’ll take brownies, cookies, ice cream, pie, etc. any day. So for my celebration I wanted to make perhaps one of my ALL-TIME favorite desserts – a warm, gooey, enormous skillet baked chocolate chip cookie!
…with bacon of course. Topped with vanilla ice cream. (!!!!!)
You know what is, hands-down, the best part of moving?
The built-in excuse to “use up” all the ingredients in your refrigerator!
I absolutely hate wasting food, so I’m feeling fortunate that we’re moving close enough that I can actually bring all of our pantry ingredients with us. But the fridge? Everything’s gotta go! Most of the things in our fridge are pretty straightforward (eggs, butter, milk, etc.) but I had the majority of a bag of almond meal in there from these bad boys and just couldn’t bear to let it go to waste (that shit is expensive, yo). Enter: almond flour chocolate chip cookies!!
This weekend, I took a little trip that will be forever known as “How much food can two gals eat in 36 hours in one of the best eating cities on Earth?” I think it will surprise absolutely no one that the answer is…a lot. Especially when it involves walking countless miles literally all over Manhattan and subsequently working up countless appetites. It’s my favorite way to travel!
