My lack of expertise may have contributed to my problems(!), but I had some trouble getting the timing right on this recipe. I ended up baking in our electric oven for almost 11 minutes, but the cookies got harder than I'd hoped. With shorter baking times the cookies fell apart when I was trying to remove them to the foil.

This is my FAVORITE cookie recipe! I'd bake these cookies over any other! They are simple to make. Just let them bake for about 8 minutes and after taking them out of the oven (I use a Pampered Chef baking stone)let them sit there for a minute. They remove easily without breaking and are very soft!

Very quick to prepare - Held their shape wonderfully when they came out of the oven (kept my batch in a few minutes longer, switching trays from top to bottom every 4 minutes [3 times]). Turned out moist and the most yummy when still warm. Mmmm mmmm! I think I need a glass of milk :)

Were is the MILK!!! Need to reduce the chips from 12 to 6 ounces and they would be great.

These are really good and everyone who has tried them really enjoyed them. They were gone right away! I only added 1/2 of the choclate chips it calls for and they were just right! Not too chocolatey! Way good!
