REVIEWS:

I have tried many different chocolate chip recipes, and have yet to find the perfect one, but this just may be the one! These are delicious and turned out very nice and pretty and were easy to make. I used unsalted butter.

I made these for my son to take to school for his birthday. I doubled the recipe and used chocolate pudding and milk chocolate and vanilla chips. They were a big hit with the kids.

Out of this world!!! My mom makes these cookies, too, and they are always soft and wonderful!

We LOVE these cookies!!!

Very good! I used chocolate fudge pudding and butterscotch chips, per hubby request. A big hit!

I use this recipe ALL the time!! Excellent!

You can't go wrong with this recipe....we have made this for years....very delicious

Thank you Tammy! I have made many different recipes for chocolate chip cookies and these are the best by far! When I visit someone and ask what can I bring they always say "those wonderful chocolate chip cookies". They've even been sent to a friend in Colorado as that's what he wanted for Christmas. Again can't thank you enough for a super cookie!

Very, very good cookies. Chewy & delicious.

Delicious. The only change I made was to use half semi sweet and half milk chocolate chips. I also used unsalted butter.

I love these cookies! Way better than the cookies I made before. They stay soft, chewy, and delicious!

I didn't have vanilla pudding so I used white chocolate pudding. It's the perfect cookie to have with a glass of milk!

It is always hard to find the balance between pretty and yummy chocolate chip cookies but I think this is the one.
