  • 2 large Eggs (or flaxseed for a vegan option)

Mix-Ins
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chips (feel free to mix dark and white, or use chunks)
  • 1/2 cup Candy Canes (crushed) Can substitute with chopped nuts for an extra crunchy dimension.

  6. Fold in the chocolate chips and crushed candy canes.
  7. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them out well.
