Life is so weird. When you're a kid you want to hurry up and grow up and then as soon as you are all grown up you just want to be a kid again. Dreaming of make believe, Santa, big cookies, and naps today. Xx

Ingredients
2 sticks unsalted butter, softened

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

2. Line a 14-inch, light colored, round pizza pan with parchment paper and grease the parchment paper. You can also use a large cheesecake pan.

4. In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt and mix with a whisk. Add to the butter mixture, mixing well to incorporate. 

5. Add add the vanilla extract and chocolate chips. Spread across the bottom of the prepared pan and use your hands to press down into a round.
