    Wow, these were amazing. I just made a TON of these, both "soft" (about 7 mins per batch) and "crunchy" (about 9-10 mins per batch, and these were also soft in the middles) and wow, this made a ton of cookies. I highly reccomend flattening them down a bit before baking; these spread very very little. Delicious recipe-- I know what I'm giving as holiday presents!

    I have tried several cookie recipes from this site, including a lot of highly rated chocolate chip cookie recipes. These were by far the best and most reliable. I use several different type cookie sheets, and they always turned out great. This was definitely the best recipe!
