Essential Snow Day Supply: Chocolate Chips by Michelle Buffardi in Recipes, February 2nd, 2011

- Hopefully you bought a bunch before your store sold out.
Are you snowed in? Hope you’ve got a shovel and have stocked up on ice melt, bread, toilet paper and . . . chocolate chips. With every big storm warning, local stores always sell out of chocolate chips! Is everyone trapped inside making cookies? Let us know what you’re making besides snowmen today; here’s some chocolate chip inspiration to get you started.
With nearly 800 reviews, Alton Brown’s The Chewy is the most popular chocolate-chip cookie on Food Network. Have you made it?
Some call it a guilty pleasure, some a nostalgic indulgence, but few would dispute the restorative power of pancakes for dinner. Add chocolate chips and homemade cinnamon whipped cream for a Paula Deen-approved snow day dinner, y’all.
Aliza Schwartz won Food Network Magazine’s secret-ingredient recipe contest with her Chocolate Chip Challah Bread recipe, surely it will win your family over, too.
Cookies + pie topped with whipped cream, can you handle all the best desserts at once? Top The Deen Brothers’ Chocolate-Chip Pie with ice cream instead of whipped cream for an even dreamier dessert.
Hopefully you picked up some milk, too.









Chocolate chips are a must have on a snow day!!!!
besides snow, baking or cooking with chocolate must have been in the air. To gather strength for shoveling the white stuff I made cinnamon laced apple waffles, which got the job done nicely. For dinner a black bean and chocolate chili, with corn bread and a salad laced with mango, a perfect ending to a snow day.
