Make Ahead Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix

IMG_1404

We love chocolate chip cookies around here.  However, I’m not always in the mood to mix up a full batch of cookies.  Make ahead chocolate chip cookie mix to the rescue.  The dry ingredients are already mixed up, so all you need to do is add the wet ingredients and mix.

Hint:  Use an electric mixer because it’s harder to mix by hand.  It’s doable. Just harder to get all the ingredients mixed together.

These can be stored for 3 months in an airtight container.  I used zippered storage bags.
