Chocolate Chip Cookies
These chocolate chip cookies are so yummy that you will want to eat them all. They are crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.
These chocolate chip cookies are yummy and addicting because they are crispy, not too sweet, and did I mention they have chocolate chips?
Some habits never die
I often write about my tastes changing from what they used to be when I was younger. If you are constant reader of my blog, you know a few of the foods in my life that have gone from a “No, thank you,” to a “Yes, please.”
Like bourbon. Years ago that was a firm, “No, thank you.” But now, it’s a “Yes, please!”
I have never liked is raw cookie dough. I’ve only tasted homemade raw cookie dough twice. I’m more adventurous when it comes to store-bought chocolate chip cookie dough that comes in tubes, which I’ve sampled, say, more than twice.
But not much more. I kept thinking I’d like it.
I finally decided that I didn’t like it and would not be eating any more raw dough.
Until now.
I wanted to see if my tastes have changed on this matter. Drum roll, please.
NOPE! All things are right in the world.

Helpful tips
- Take the butter one hour prior to starting the recipe. When I take it out of the fridge, I unwrap the butter before putting it in the mixer. I also take a knife and cut it up so the butter softens quicker.
- I use a medium scoop to add the batter to the cookie sheets. If you prefer larger cookies, use the large scoop.
- Remember everyone’s oven is different, I bake the cookies for 10 minutes, but yours might take longer.
