    Very tasty! But I have to confess, maybe not the healthiest option. But if you're not worried about your waist, then go for it! My husband and son loved them too.

    Sometime a recipe just screams "make me"....this did that to me and WOW am I glad it did!!! This is by far one of the best chocolate cookie recipes I have ever made and I bake alot!!! I used 8 oz of vanilla flavored chips and a cup of semi sweet chips and a cooky scoop to dip them with. I got way more than 54, more like 70 wonderfully sized cookies. This first pan went for 8 minutes and were slightly too soft so 8.5 minutes were perfect! Cooled on the cookie sheets for a minute them moved to the counter. They were soft with a crispy slight edge and so brownie like flavor. This is one cookie that I will make constantly and with many variations. BTW I used parchement paper and margarine. Thanks for a keeper of a cookie!!!

    These cookies are great!! I only cooked about a dozen when I first made the dough. I made two "logs" in saran wrap, wrapped in foil and froze the rest of the dough. Tonight I baked some of the dough that had been frozen and they were just as wonderful as the first time around. Thanks for posting the recipe!!
