Cinnamon Chip Cookies

Oh. My. Goodness. So a few months ago I had a craving. A big craving. It took a while to figure out what it was but then I realized what it was: Cinnamon Chip Cookies. When my mom's friend Darlene first moved into our ward she made us some of these cookies. She even gave us the extra dough to freeze and I remembering taking big chunks of the frozen dough and munching on that. Mmmmmmm. SO good. I didn't have the recipe so I contacted Darlene and she was gracious enough to look for it and give it to me. I made them last night because I couldn't hold off the craving any more and I can now say I am satisfied. Sam even likes them and he's not as into cinnamon as I am. :)
