Woot! Woot! It's almost the weekend and I can't think of a better way to celebrate the weekend, than with these  Chocolate Chip Toffee Walnut Cookies.

*Cheers* to the freakin' weekend!

Now, here's my tall fish tale when it comes to these sweet treats.  

You see, I was reeled in, like a poor fish on a hook with those ultra dark chocolate chips , crunchy toffee and walnut chunks stuffed about in those thick, chewy, delicious cookies staring right back at me.  It's not like I was fighting the urge to bite them. I fell for them, hook, line and sinker. Obviously.  That's my quirky little fish tale!  🙂 

I'm such a sucker for dark chocolate!!  (well...any chocolate really, but dark chocolate is just a different, cool kind of chocolate all in it's own special little world because it's not as sweet.  I named it the 'rebellious' chocolate.)  Although milk chocolate is  my favorite chocolate, dark chocolate does have it's advantages!

The anti-oxidants from the dark chocolate and omega-3s from the walnuts is in there.  That works for me!
