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.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

Split an angel food cake horizontally frost and put top on. Frost sides. Presto a light yet delicious cake.

I don't typically write reviews or like whipped cream based frostings (made it for someone who does) but this one is a winner. Would definitely make this again!
