I come from a long line of cookie bakers, and this was a very good recipe! I made a few revisions myself, such as blending all ingredients in a glass bowl with a wooden spoon (I'm old school). I also used 1 c. butter-flavored shortening instead of butter/ shortening combo - it helps the cookies set without spreading too much. I also baked for 10 minutes and let rest on the cookie sheet (lined with aluminum foil, not greased) for an additional minute. The cookies were perfect, and my brother-in-law in Iraq absolutely LOVED them. Read More

These cookies have far too much flour in them when i made them up 2 cups of flour to only 1 cup of chips is too much and it was obvious in tasting them. Read More

I thought these cookies were very good. I lightly greased one cookie sheet and not the other and there was no difference. The cookies on the ungreased sheet did not stick. Loved 'em. Read More

I followed the recipe with two exceptions: I added a 10 oz. bag of white chocolate chips (almost 2 cups) and only added 5 oz. macadamia nuts. I baked for 9 minutes and they came out perfect! Will definitely make these again. Thanks! Read More

I'd also suggest cutting back on the butter or shortening.. although I didn't have a problem with spreading grease seeped out as the cookies were cooking which caused some of the edges to be slightly "crispy" and burnt even with decreased cooking time. Otherwise the cookie was good; soft and chewy. Read More
