My Chocolate Chip cookies are famous in my community. Many of my friends won’t let me in the door for dinner without reaching for the bag of cookies first! I like thin crispy Chocolate Chip Cookies. You know the kind; the ones that make a lot of noise as you chew them. I have found that using two spoons to scrape the dough on to the cookie sheet produces thinner cookies than using a small scoop to drop the dough. If you prefer your cookies a little softer, use the scoop. Either way, I promise your family and guests will love them.
Hint: Let your batter rest 15-30 minutes after you prepare it. I don’t know what the science is; but the cookies come out crisper and more delicious when I take the time to do it. Trust me, they’re still terrific even if you don’t include the rest period.
Hint: If you’re using two racks in the same oven, reverse the cookie sheets half way through. If you’re using a Convection oven, you don’t have to reverse the racks.
Prep time: 45 minutes
