Baking cookies with my little helpers

Early this morning, I baked chocolate chip cookies.  My boys were more than eager to help.  They have no interest in learning how to bake; they just want to lick the bowl.  They are vultures.

(I look terrible in this photo; it was early in the morning and I was still in my pj's.  But the boys look cute!)

It's actually not as fun as you would think to bake with these boys.

"Can I lick the bowl now?"
"No, there's only butter in the bowl.  That would be disgusting."
"Can I lick it now?"
"No, now it is just butter and eggs.  Gross."

And so I am asked the same question every 10 seconds until I'm finally finished.

By the way, I found the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe. It is so much better than the recipes found on the back of the chocolate chip bags.
