- Clean out and organize not just the rooms themselves, but organization spaces such as closets, shelves, drawers, and bookshelves.
- Learn how to properly use organization equipment, such as bins, drawer organizers, storage bins, food storage containers, lids, and baskets.

- Share your successes and see the successes of others as we all work towards finding balance and clarity in our homes.
- Can ask questions and let me know what you may still need help with so that I can continue to cater the course to your needs
What Do People Have To Say About My Organization Course?
“This course was instrumental in helping me organize my space as well as my time. As a busy mom, I have a better grasp on what my days need to include so that I can enjoy my family rather than spend my time spinning my wheels cleaning up after everyone.”
“The Balanced Home Course helped me to be the “professional organizer” for my family! Simple steps to follow, check lists, printable labels, suggestions and worksheets will keep you on track to successfully maintain your own balanced home.”
“I am pretty sure I have solved more issues with the seven layers and clarity tool than I have in 6 months of therapy!! I think this course is going to help much more than my home. Thanks Amy!!!!”
When I realized I had been overcomplicating the idea of organization, that simplifying was a key component, then things really started to fall into place!”

Thank you Jen!
Check out alldayidreamaboutfood.com. She has lots of gluten free and low carb recipes, and yep, chocolate chip cookies too!!
I will!! Thank you so much! I really appreciate that!! You might have just saved me :)
These look amazing!! Can’t wait to try this recipe! xoxo
Thank you Jamielyn!
May I just say I love the “according to your chocolate needs” part. Lol! :)
Ha! Some days you can get away with a few chocolate chips…and then there are days where you gotta keep dumping them in. ;)
These look great! I challenge you to a cookie throwdown! Mwuah ha ha.
Ha! We totally should and do a blind taste test! xo
These are my FAVORITE! Best recipe ever. I do, however, like them much better with milk chocolate chips!
Ha! Good thing we can each cater them to our own chocolate needs right? My sister is a milk chocolate fan too! ;)
To each their own :) Any type of chocolate will do!!
I’ve tried this recipe & my family didn’t approve :( especially compared to the recipe I use all the time! Seriously a HUGE hit with the family, church family & friends!! Nestlé Toll House semi sweet chocolate chips!! The recipe is on the back of the bag! Now, BUTTER is what makes these a hit or miss! I ALWAYS use Land O Lakes butter sticks…salt, NOT unsalted! Other friends & family have used other butter & they don’t come out the way I make em! And I mix with wooden spoon, never a mixer…I say that’s what gives it that extra love & goodness ;) and I use a 1 and a half inch scooper so they all cook evenly! Now, best way to eat these…right out the oven scoop some vanilla ice cream in between two hot and soft cookies!!! YUM O!!! I add pecans to the dough by the way..hubby’s fave :)
I have tried that one…maybe I need to try the Land O Lakes and your suggestions!! And the part about the vanilla ice cream? Pure genius right there my friend! And Pecans! We use walnuts sometimes but I really prefer pecans…double genius!!
Try toasted walnuts. So much better than untoasted.
Angela- I will have to try that. Sounds amazing.
They look delicious! If only I wasn’t trying to eat healthy…I’ll save this recipe for later. Thanks :)
I totally hear you! This job is hazardous! Good for you!
These look so good! I think I’ll give them a try this weekend. Thanks, girl! Pinned. :)
I think I’ll give these a try!
They look mouth-watering… Although, I’m trying to eat less sweets, my teenage son wouldn’t have any problem cleaning out the cookie jar. : ) I would use Ghirardelli Baking Chips. I tried them once and there’s no going back. They are so chocolaty and creamy.
Is the temperature supposed to be 375 by chance? I just made these and they were no where near done at 350 for
12 minutes. Maybe it’s just my oven. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Thanks for share. I really excited to read this
Made this recipe this morning. It was just ok. I will stick to the Nestle Toll House Recipe. So much better. I also think that the temp should be 375 not 350 as indicated. Mine were not even close to being done at 350 but cooked when I turned it up to 375. Glad I tried but won’t make again.
I made these just now and they came out nothing like the photos :-/ they were thin and crispy which fortunately I like but it wasn’t what I expected or wanted given I was baking to share with friends, family, and coworkers (aka I was aiming for a cookie that would be universally liked – I know not everyone is into the thin and crispy.) I did follow the recipe exactly, except I put my oven to 375 as per recommendation by another commenter, but I found after 8 minutes they were getting pretty toasty so I took them out.
Glad you have a favorite recipe. Ya! Must be differences in ovens.
Use Crisco Baking Sticks: butter flavor, instead of butter!!! doesnt make them flat! Crisco helps them keep there full shape!!
These cookies are sooo amazing! Though they are delicious and creamy, I had to work at the dough with a mixer for almost half an hour to get it into a dough consistency. Finally, I added a little whole milk, and it turned out great!!
I made these today, followed recipe and oven temp and they were perfect and like the photo at 10-11 min. Very good. I had to work a bit at the dough as it is dense. Thank you!
So glad you like them! Yes…the dough can be quite dense. I sometimes will add a tiny bit of milk to make the dough a little more pliable if needed.
I didn’t have vanilla pudding but chocolate. Oh my gosh that with 2 cups of chips definitely fulfills my chocolate needs! So good.
Can you please confirm what baking soda is? Is it Bicarb of soda or is it baking powder?
Not baking powder. The bicarb of soda!
Tried many gluten free chocolate chip cookie dough. Your had a little grit to it. Otherwise baked good. You need to let them cool a good 2 minutes before taking them off the cookie sheet. Very soft cookie like you would get from a regular cookie.
These sounded so good when I save the recipe! But now I want to make them and the recipe is gone!! Help!!! It was replaced with this:
[amd-zlrecipe-recipe:43]
Thanks!
Where is the recipe? I’m on an iPhone and I don’t see it anywhere.
Help! Your site (along with thousands of others) has a WordPress error – your shortcode is not working, and your recipe has disappeared.
:(
My recipe is close to this one. I’m going to try your version. I do use different instant puddings. I have used coconut, butterscotch, lemon, french vanilla.
You will have to let me know if you like this recipe. I just love them!
Instead of using butter, its so much better to use Crisco Baking Sticks, butter flavor. Butter spreads, and goes flat, but Crisco helps the cookie keep its shape.
I’ve been using this recipe for decades. My family won’t eat any others. Try it with chocolate pudding mix instead of vanilla, they are wonderful.
What a beautiful cookie!! Thick, chocolate chip cookies are what I crave! These are so good!!
Natalie- These are so good. Cookies are my weakness!
I can’t resist a warm, chocolate chip cookie! These are thick, chocolate-y, & so, so good!
Kristyn- Me either! I love cookies so much!
