Coddling a Cookie Monster

I had this situation often. Cookie craving. 

No, scratch that. Make it chocolate chips cookie craving. 

The thing is, making chocolate chip cookies requires a large pan (in my house) plus tremendous (if you're not in the mood or just lazy) labor to scoop up the cookie dough onto the baking sheet. For once, I'm not up to it. 

So how to fix that? Easy as a pea! 

Just dump the whole thing in the pan and bake them all together! 

^_^ And to make it a lot more EASIER, ask someone else to do the whole thing for you a.k.a your sister. Now hit on for the rest of it!
