These were delicious! Easy to make and my family loved them. The dough was very thick, almost too thick to hold the chocolate chips, so i had to add a little more butter so i could work with it.

Easy and tasty! I've seen so many cookie recipes that claim to be "chewy", but they never turn out that way for me. But I decided to give this one a try, anyway. I followed the directions, and they turned out chewy — not as chewy as I expected, but WAY better than the recipe I've used my entire life. I used the lower oven temp even though I wasn't using dark cooking sheets. I made the cookies bigger than the recipe said, and I may have baked them a little longer than they should have been, but they still turned out good. BF likes chewy cookies and gave this one two thumbs up. I'll definitely make this one again but try baking them a little less tmie — possibly not as chewy because I baked a little longer than I should have! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

These were great! I used egg whites and Splenda instead of the white sugar, but they were still perfect to me. I think they turned out a little puffier than they would have without the subs, but I didn't mind a bit--they were still delicious! Thanks for a recipe with minimal butter, compared to the others. I will make these often!
