I’d put these up against your grandma’s cookies any day.

I’ve spent a long time perfecting this chocolate chip recipe. To me, they’re perfect. Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside and light as a feather. If you desire a little more toothy-ness to your cookie, bake a minutes less. Like them crispier? Go a minute longer. Play around with it. I love schmearing mine with old fashioned vanilla bean ice cream. Addictive.
