These cookies are a great way to use up leftover chocolate chips. I always have a bag of chocolate chips in my pantry, so I can make these cookies anytime.

I'm not a big fan of frosting, so I just sprinkled some powdered sugar on top of the cookies. They were still delicious!

I was a little skeptical about the frosting at first, but it was actually really good. It's not too sweet and it pairs perfectly with the cookies.
