Chocolate White Chocolate Chip Cookies

I’ve been dreaming of a new kitchen on an itty bitty budget since April. Five months later, still no kitchen, but my estimate had doubled. And yes, we were planning to do a lot of work ourselves, except for things like plumbing and electrical. My kitchen… where do I even start, I have no counter space, an eyesore of a peninsula (ie. space for junks), completely useless blind corner cabinets that magically suck kitchenware into oblivion, and exposed gas piping rounding the corner from the stove to the dryer cutting through cabinets. Oh yeah, did I mention my washer and dryer are in the kitchen, next to the fridge, yup. It’s so crowded in there, I can’t even understand how we cook Thanksgiving dinner. Whoever designed this kitchen seemed like they didn’t even know what kitchens are for.

But I’ve decided to put the kitchen on the back burner until I’ve saved enough to do it right. It is too late to start a renovation now anyways with Thanksgiving just around the corner. And it would be a crime not to have a working kitchen on Thanksgiving! You think it’s only September now, but just blink, and turkeys will be squawking at you soon enough. What can I say, I’m a planner… 😛

On the brighter side, no kitchen renovation means a working oven intact. And you know what that means?! Cookies!! More specifically, these  chocolate white chocolate chip cookies. Or you could call them black and white cookies for short, a daintier version of these chocolate chip cookies or these chocolate peanut butter chip cookies, but with a very similar formula. Once you make one, you can make them all, any way you’d like. If I can’t have a new kitchen, at least I can still have cookies. You just can’t have it all, c’est la vie…
