Burnt Cookies

I have a penchant for chocolate chip cookies and I especially like them warm and fresh from the oven. I have my favorite recipe and make it fairly regularly. Today, my youngest decided she would add a little something to the recipe and turn the oven to broil while I wasn't looking. All of a sudden I smelled something burning and checked the oven and found my cookies nice and blackened on top. The aroma is still lingering in my kitchen.
