Homemade Garlic Naan

My sister's family and I recently made an Indian feast for dinner. We had some of the usual suspects, like chicken tikka masala and raita. But this time my brother in law was brave enough to try making garlic naan. I should preface this post by saying that he did all the legwork in making this naan and the rest of us simply got to enjoy it. But it was a fun process to share a kitchen with someone dabbling in naan making. We quickly discovered some group favorites. When the naan is fresh, everyone preferred the garlic naan, but on the next day, the few plain naan pieces we the winners as the garlic didn't taste as good on day 2. My brother in law also played with cooking temperatures for a bit before finding the ideal naan cooking setting. This will vary in each stove so experiment with what works best for your naan so it still browns and bubbles, but doesn't burn.

Soft Baked Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have always loved a soft baked chocolate chip cookie, but had never baked one that I loved. Recently my niece requested to bake chocolate chip cookies so I looked in to a few different recipes. I found this one and decided to give it a try. This instantly became my new go-to chocolate chip cookie recipe. They turned out wonderfully. Everyone who tried them was pleasantly surprised by how good they were (clearly my chocolate chip cookie reputation was mediocre prior to this). These turn out soft baked and thanks to the instructions, you actually know when to take them out of the oven to keep that chewiness of a soft baked cookie.
