This is definitely a no fail cookie. Thanks.
Followed recipe. Used 2 inch scoop to place dough. Turned out awesome
Soft, chocolaty, the best chocolate chip cookie I have ever made/ever tasted!
Ever since my husband found this recipe, it is now my instant go-to for chocolate chip cookies
I’m so glad that I found this recipe, I made them from France and everyone was thrilled about the texture and taste
These cookies are Amazing! My old man ate them up. I didn’t change a thing, you don’t need to.
Delicious,chewey, the bomb
I followed the recipe to the exact measurements. The taste of these cookies were amazing! However, they came out of the oven FLAT! I love a thick cookie. After investigating, I realized a few things that could have been changed. The butter should not have been melted as written, maybe room temperature. AND I believe the flour needs to be increased by 1/4 cup-(possibly 1/2 cup). Also the batter was not cold at all when I scooped it onto the pan so that was my mistake. I should have let it chill in the fridge before baking. Again.. great tasting cookie. Just very thin. I would use this recipe again. Just making a few personal changes.
Tasty and simple to make. I used 1/4 teaspoon of salt and salted butter. A few too many chocolate chips. I’ll probably go with 1 1/2 C next time.
Thx for leaking the cookie recipe i added the recipe in my notebook where i put recipes in it
2 cups choco chip is too much even 1 cup was fine for me I loved these I changed up the recipe a bit later on so I can have my own recipe but following this exact recipe except the choco chips they were delicious
Best cookies ever! I added cocoa powder and used peanut butter chips. I’ve also made the original recipe and they came out perfect as well.
Not horrible, but very dry and not moist and chewy at all. The flavour was boring and my cookie loving kids didn’t even go for a second one. Do not recommend.
So so dry! They were crumbly and just fell apart, also the flavor was just….meh. Also, and I can’t believe I’m saying this, but too many chocolate chips.
I have made this recipe several times and they truly are the Best Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies just as the title says! The only tweak I make is that I feel I get better results if the butter is soft vs melted. Enjoy! 🙂
They tasted dry like baking soda and were super thick and cakey
Husband says best cookies I’ve made.
Love this recipe! The only thing I do differently is CHILL the dough for 1hr before baking. I make jumbo and small cookies with this recipe and they come out delicious
VERY GOOD RECIPE I DONT KNOW WHAT THESE OTHER PEOPLE ARE DOING BECAUSE THESE COOKIES WERE VERY GOOD. ONLY THING I DID DIFFERENT WAS CUT THE COOKING TIME DOWN A BIT.
This recipe turned out super great! Altho mine weren’t chewy it was the exact thing I was looking for! I added some cinnamon powder to give it some extra flavour and turned out great!
loved this recipie it was awesome and makes lots! will definantly use again made lots of money at a lemonade and cookie sale selling these and will bake more during holidays and for partys!!
