in search of...
I need a good chocolate chip cookie recipe. I made some for the boys tonight since they have a friend spending the night (no school tomorrow) and the recipe said, "after trying millions of recipes this is the one my family loves the best." Well, how could I go wrong with that? It is not the one me or my family loves the best. It is too cakey. I too feel as though I have tried millions of recipes, but I just haven't been lucky enough to find one that I (we) LOVE. I have a fantastic one for oatmeal chocolate chip, one for malted chocolate chip, and even a great one for chocolate chip pudding cookies. Those are all great great recipes, but they don't satisfy when I am just craving a good old chocolate chip cookie. This little boy we have spending the night tonight just told me that his dad makes the perfect chocolate chip cookie. I think I am going to have to look in to that and hopefully, he is one who shares recipes. If anyone else out there has the perfect one, let me know. I like them chewy, but slightly crisp on the edges. You know...the perfect chocolate chip cookie!

I think it depends on location or elevation or something. I have a great Utah recipe, and a Virginia recipe, but have yet to find one that is perfect here.
hey...I'l email you my favorite family recipe...I think they're the best ever....but everyone says that about their own recipe!
I have always heard that the best one is the one right off the bag of Nestle Toll House Choc. Chips..
It's worth a try, sometimes the oldies are the goodies..
also- do you have the Mrs. Fields recipe? I think I do, I'll look it up..
I'm an oatmeal choc. chip cookie fanatic.. but I think you already knew that :-)
I do have a plain old choc. chip one that we love. Don't make it all that much cause it calls for real shortening--but they are soft and gooey. Don't know what texture you are looking for?
I've searched high and low for at least 7 years and I have finally found soft, chewy, chocolate chip cookie recipe and i'm sure you can just add a bit less flour to make them a bit crispier! IT is by far the best recipe I have ever come accross and I have cupboards upon cupboards of recipe books. If you'd like it - I'll share - just email me! sstrader@gmail.com
XOXO
Mwa!
I totally agree! I love chewy insides, crispy outside... I've tried so many different recipes at this point, it's almost ridiculous. If you ever find one you love, please share it.
