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.

Part of CDKitchen's 2005 Thanksgiving Menu. Outstanding. Definitely worth the time it takes to make. Not overly sweet or heavy, yet truly decadent. We highly recommend this cheesecake.
