Yummy cookies with a nice texture. These were so amazing fresh from the oven, I can understand why you recommend making a double batch! I used parchment paper lined cookie sheets vs greasing the sheets and that worked out well. I got about 54 cookies from a single batch. Thanks for sharing. Nick's Mom

These were wonderful! The dough was delicious - my daughter said the it tasted like chocolate ice cream! I didn't put any choc. chips in them - just 3/4 bag of peanut butter chips and they were still wonderful - chocolatey, chewy - yum! The dough is very soft - and they come out of the oven soft. I waited until they were completely cooled and it was worth it - they are delicious and I'll be making these again soon!

Great cookies, made almost exactly as written except I just used 2 eggs instead of 1 egg and 1 egg yolk. Also, I did not have any peanut butter chips so I just used a mixture of semi sweet and milk chocolate chips. I did not refrig. the dough just baked it straight away and got about 42 good sized cookies. Thank you for the recipe.
