Chocolate Pretzel Chip Cookies

Food

My teenager loves to bake, but hates to follow recipes. Cue the constant argument: “Baking is like chemistry! You need to be exact!” During quarantine, I’ve left her alone in the kitchen to experiment, make a mess, and make her own recipes. The other night she presented us with one of her most delicious creations: Chocolate Pretzel Chip Cookies.

Apologies in advance, you’re not going to be able to stop eating these.
