For the past several years I have been fortunate enough to be able to participate in the
Cookies for Kids' Cancer campaign hosted by OXO, a brand that I have been using for
years and love.
This year OXO is partnering with chef-supporters of Cookies for Kids' Cancer, providing
recipes that they hope will inspire others to host their own Cookies for Kids' Canter bake
sales. Cookies for Kids' Cancer is a national 501(c)3 non-profit that is committed to raising
funds for research to develop new, improved, and less toxic treatments for pediatric cancer,
the #1 disease killer of children in the United States.
Dan is the chef and owner of Loring Place in the heart of Greenwich Village in NYC.
I've tried many different chocolate chip recipes over the years and I will have to admit
that this recipe is now one of my favorites! The cookie is soft, light and oh so delicious!
They key to making great chocolate chip cookies is to use fresh, quality ingredients and
good baking equipment. Besides my pink mixer, the OXO cookie scoop is my most
favorite baking tool! The OXO cookie scoop portions out perfect size cookies and it's
also great when filling muffin tins with batter for cupcakes and muffins.
I was so excited to see that OXO now has a silicone baking mat! Silicone baking mats are
the best! I use them every time I bake. They keep cookies from sticking to the bottom of
the pan, withstand dough and grease and make for easy clean up too.
The mat fits perfectly inside the OXO Non-Stick Pro Half Sheet Jelly Roll Pan, which is
another favorite!
Join in the Cookies for Kids' Cancer challenge by registering your event online.
If you mark that you were inspired by OXO when you register, they will match proceeds
from your bake sale up to their annual commitment. How cool is that!

Refrigerate cookie dough for a half hour before portioning. Use a 1 oz. cookie scoop
to drop cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with Maldon salt.
Bake for 7 - 10 minutes, depending upon your oven.
The cookies will turn golden brown at the edges. They should be slightly puffy in the
middle, but starting to color in the middle as well.
Remove from oven and let them cool on the baking sheet a few minutes before
transferring to a cooling rack.

Enjoy!
