I guess I'm a little behind when it comes to the Chia seed fad, and, in particular, Chia seed pudding. I've been using Chia seeds in my granola and thrown into oatmeal for a while now, but I've been hesitant about the idea of turning them into a creamy dessert. Now this dessert isn't for everyone.

We have had some amazing weather over the past few days, so I have been trying to avoid my computer and embrace it as much as possible recently. After some odd snow days and unbearable cold temperatures, we earned the sunshine! Unfortunately, the avoidance of the computer was more due to the full schedules over the past few days as opposed to the weather. Sad, huh?

These Cake Batter Chocolate Chip Cookies are a cross between delicious, soft-baked chocolate chip cookies and sprinkle filled funfetti cake!
