Notes

*This is my go to for semi-sweet chocolate chunks. I like that this brand doesn't have any artificial sweeteners and has a really great taste.
**If you do not need to avoid soy, here is a budget allergy friendly semi-sweet chocolate chip brand that I like.  When I need to avoid soy I typically stick with EnjoyLife brand chocolates. If you've found another dairy-free, soy-free chocolate chip brand that tastes great send me a comment to let me know!
***I typically have three rows of four cookies per cookie sheet with two cookies leftover. I reuse one of the cooled down cookie sheets and pop in the last two cookies on that.
