How to Serve Chocolate Chip Birthday Cookies

Serve these cookies warm with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage. They are great for sharing at parties or as a sweet treat after dinner. Don’t forget to add some extra sprinkles on top for fun!

How to Store Chocolate Chip Birthday Cookies

Store your cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. They will stay fresh for about a week. If you want them to last longer, you can freeze them! Just place them in a freezer-safe bag, and they will keep for up to three months.

Tips to Make Chocolate Chip Birthday Cookies

• Make sure your butter is soft, not melted, for the best texture.
• You can chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking if you want thicker cookies.
• Use your favorite type of chocolate chips, like dark, milk, or white chocolate!

Variation

For a twist, try adding nuts or substituting some all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a slightly healthier option. You can also adjust the amount of sprinkles to match the theme of your celebration!
