Congratulations. If you've made it this far, you've survived Thanksgiving. And since there's a good chance you have some leftover turkey sitting around in the fridge, I'm here to help you use it up in some more exciting ways than a sandwich.

When your turkey is cold, remove it all from the bones and shred it in to nice-sized chunks. At this point you can toss it in to any green salads to turn them in to a meal, use it in soups to make them heartier or mix with your favorite sauce and serve it on bread for a pulled turkey sandwich.

If you ask most people what their favorite cookie is, you'll get a resounding: chocolate chip. And while the classic is nothing to joke around about, switching things up with a little hint of cinnamon and three (yes, three!) types of chocolate brings the traditional to an even more exciting level.

Chilling the dough in the fridge before use allows the flavors to develop even further, and baking the cookies until they just have the slightest brown tint gets them to stay deliciously chewy for days to come.
