Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

This is a great alternative to the longer, more complicated recipe of Moussaka I've tried. Both are tasty but this was quicker and required less ingredients. I would use less salt next time because the cheese and tom. sauce seemed to have plenty. I had been wanting to make it for my husband because he never had it. He loved it! I had to almost sit on him to keep him from eating a 3rd serving!! (he doesn't need that) Plus I am eating it for lunch today and there's plenty leftover for tonight. Great filling meal that provides lunch dinner the next night while I am pregnant.

Took 1 hour and 35 minutes from start to taking out of oven. Used ground lamb. Took this to a potluck & all of it was eaten. Two people asked for the recipe.
