Fantastic recipe :) I have made these cookies twice in two days and they have disappeared before my eyes! The first time I didnt have any choc chips to use, so i substituted them for chopped cooking chocolated which resulted in speckled cookies which tasted wonderful. The next day I made them again with good quality choc chips and they tasted EVEN better :) Thankyou for posting such a great recipe Marli :)

These were sooo yum! I made them for my boyfriend who loves choc cookies, i didnt have any choc chips so i just chopped up half dark and half milk chocolate, they've just come out of the oven and are exactly as i hoped - like the ones you get at certain well known cookie shops but much cheaper! One thing - i found i had to squash them with my hand before baking, put in the oven in little balls the mix didnt spread much. Definitely making these again :) (probably every weekend going by tony's reaction to them!)

Delicious! So easy to make and tasty. Have already made them three times. The first time I did not have enough chocolate chips and filled it up with raisins. Since that was so nice I, although I had enough chips the next time, still added a handful of raisins.<br/>I get about 26 cookies and they bake for 12 minutes. They disappear very quickly..........<br/>Thanks for posting.

This recipe is superb !! Not only delicious but easypeasy - I actually made a dozen cookies of the 'handful' size. Crispy and chewy in all the right places. A must for an energy boosting snack.
