Beautiful Puffy cookies. I think that is in the separate mixing/beating of each egg. I just found that I'd like it a little sweeter next time and might try doubling the vanilla but the kids made them for Santa and he seemed to love them! Read More

These cookies are awesome. I added chopped dried cherries and chopped pecans.I will be giving these as gifts over the holidays.Some reviewers said the cookies went flat. I think it's important that you measure the flour before sifting rather than after...just a hint Read More

These were super good! They're nice and fluffy and taste great. I love easy recipes that taste good. I did add more vanilla too but that's nothing new since I always do. Thanks! Read More

I don't know where the puffy part enters into it they were just regular flat chocolate cookies. They had very good chocolate flavor but I had to add about 1/4 cup more of flour because the batter just spread so much in the oven that it was impossible to get the cookie on the spatual in one piece. It still happened after adding more flour but not as extreme. I'd reccomend them but do add extra flour or forget it! Read More
