Is there a better way to start the week than with fresh, hot chocolate chip cookies?

Here are 10 "extreme" chocolate chip cookie recipes.

This is one I definitely WON'T try:

Chocolate chip cricket cookies

They're loaded in protein, and they're nice and crunchy. So what if their little legs get caught in your teeth. No really, cricket cookies are real, and some people swear by them. According to nyworms.com, they have a nutty flavor, especially when roasted. Here's how you prepare them for the cookie batter: "Just before cooking, put your crickets in the refrigerator until you are ready to roast them. You don’t want to kill them, only slow their metabolism down so that they stop moving. This allows for arranging them on the cookie sheet with out them trying to get away. Spread a bunch of pre cooled live crickets out on a cookie sheet. Bake at low temperature for an hour or more until completely dry. Test by crushing a dried cricket with your fingers."
