These cookies came out absolutely amazing! Were easy and quick, a good classical chocolate chip cookie. I read a previous person's suggestion to replace the baking soda with baking powder to avoid flatness, and decided to use 1 t baking soda and only 1/2 t baking powder, to make the cookies rise just a little. Came out perfect! When I didn't burn the sheet ;-)

I love these! I did find them a little bit flat, so as suggested, I replaced ALL of the soda with powder and the results were amazing! Tablespoon sezed cookies work, I think, the best. And their small size does add to their "poofy-ness".

I've been making these cookies for several years. Everyone LOVES my cookies. I love to see the look on my friends faces when they take the first bite. These taste nothing like the usual toll house cookie recipe. The dough freezes very well and my kids make these all of the time. You can also replace the chocolate chips with toffee bits, (the kind without chocolate) they are to die for.

I have made this recipe as a Christmas gift to a co-worker for the past couple of years. This year, I decided to try Cooks Illustrated "Crisp Chocolate Chip Cookies," thinking they would be better. Guess what? Not so much. Not at all, in fact. She was disappointed and would rather have had The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie (baked for 13 minutes, crisp). Just thought you'd like to know!

I was very happy with this cookie! The chips melted awsome and it had just a little bit of a nice shortbread taste. The only thing I could say is that after a few days they become compleate rocks so better eat them fast..... Its hard not to though!

The texture was chewy and nice. I used a little less sugar than called for--a touch more than 2 cupe, loosely packed. However, I think something went a bit wrong with the salt. I used 2 tspns, but the cookies were strangely salty.
