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 valuable shortcut or two can turn cooking from a chore into a breeze. Ginger ale adds sweetness and a bit of bite to a meaty crockpot roast, and a couple quick mixes takes care of all the seasonings.
1 bag (16 ounce size) baby carrots
6 russet potatoes, peeled and quartered or cubed
4 pounds beef rump roast
1/2 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 envelope brown gravy mix
1 envelope onion soup mix
2 cups ginger ale (not diet)
Place the carrots and potatoes in the bottom of a 4-6 quart crock pot. Place the roast on top of the vegetables.
Place the onion slices on top of the roast.
Combine the gravy mix, onion soup mix, and ginger ale in a large measuring cup or bowl. Stir to dissolve the mixes. Pour the liquid evenly over the roast and veggies in the crock pot.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 6 hours or until the meat is tender and the vegetables are cooked.
Remove the roast from the crock pot and carve as desired. Serve with the veggies and gravy from the crock pot.

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.

My family loves this recipe! I've made it a couple times now. One time I didn't have the brown gravy mix so I just thickened the juices when the roast was done with a little cornstarch and added some Worcestershire sauce (wasn't as flavorful without the mix but worked in a pinch).
