The batter is delicious but the minute I put them in the oven they spread into a thin sheet. I even tried adding more baking soda but it did not help. Instead of cookies I got thin crispy mush. Read More

I'm just making these! The dough is delicious! I did add more flour... it didn't seem quite thick enough... up to 2/3 cup more ( didn't measure!) Also... add Caramel Bits! YUM! I also added a little Almond and Coconut extracts... about 1/8 tsp of each along with vanilla. Enjoy! Read More

These were pretty good. Seemed to have a more cake like texture rather than a cookie texture but that's ok. They weren't as sweet as I like my chocolate chip cookies but they will go great with hot cocoa! Read More

Good cookie. The cookies edges didn't set up like a good looking cookie but spread out a little. Maybe my fault but they tasted good. Read More

They were a bit flat didn't look any different than a regular chocolate chip cookie and were very spongy. They would have been decent if you wanted a cake cookie. Read More
