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.

Whether you like to top them with sour cream, applesauce, or even turn them into a sandwich with corned beef, fried latkes are absolutely classic.

3 medium potatoes
1 small carrot
1 small onion
1 egg
1/4 cup cornmeal (or matzo meal)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup vegetable oil
Grate the potatoes, carrot and onion into a medium-size bowl. Stir in the egg and cornmeal (or matzo meal, if you have it), and salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, heat vegetable oil in a large heavy skillet until it reaches 375 degrees F. Scoop shredded mixture by firm 1/4-cupfuls and place gently into the oil. Fry until golden brown on one side, flip with spatula and fry the other side until golden and crispy (about 2-3 minutes).
Drain on paper towels and serve immediately. Serve with applesauce or sour cream.
