Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
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.

It's was really quick and tasty. I googled ingredients I had in the house and found this recipe. The red pepper flakes definitely add to the flavor and give it nice heat. I made mine organic, uncured and gluten-free. It turned out great. Thank you for sharing this recipe!
