I'm a huge fan of Alton Brown and these cookies didn't disappoint! I did melt the butter in the microwave instead of on the stove. I also adde 1 cup semi-swet chips and 1 cup of crushed Halloween colored M&M's to make them festive! I have tried ALOT of different CC cookie recipes and my DH and I both agreed this is the best so far! Great chewy texture. Very easy to throw together. I am usually impatient and don't like waiting for dough to chill, but these are worth it!

These were the best ch chip cookies I ever made. I usually just stick with the tollhouse recipe, with not much success, and I will never go back! This were great.

Ok I remade these cookies using bread flour. The bread four is a MUST. When I made them before using all purpose, the taste was good but when the cookie cooled they got a little cripsy (so it's perfect if you like a crispy cookie) However I like a chewy cookie and chewy is what you get using bread flour. I cooked them 6min rotated the pan then cooked another 6min. for 12min total which seemed perfect in my oven. Finally a chewy cookie after they cool. Thanx.

This is a great cookie. I followed the recipe exactly, and when I baked them at 375 for 14 min., they were a little too crisp. Reducing the bake time to about 11 minutes made a wonderful crispy-on-the outside, chewy-on-the inside cookie. Delicious.
