Making A Big Chocolate Chip Cookie In A Slow Cooker

Anyone that knows me, knows how much I LOVE homemade chocolate chip cookies. I don't need a reason to have one...or a dozen but I take one if there is one to be had. Saturday, May 15th is National Chocolate Chip Day but what good are chocolate chips if you can't bake them into a cookie?

It's a tie for who makes the best cookies that I've ever had between Cookie Chris and my Mom, Donna. So I think that should be a tie-breaker between them and the only way to settle it is for them to have a cook-off and let me be the judge.

I've had their cookies many, many, times and I can't decide which ones are better, so I've come up with an idea. Instead of baking the chocolate chip cookies in the oven, they should make one in a slow cooker.
