I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone that doesn’t like a Chocolate Chip Cookie. Am I right???

I mean how you can top a cookie that is crisp on the outside and gooey on the inside. Perfect little pillows of cookie dough dotted with plenty of chocolate chips. The more chocolate the better.

Load them up with all the milk, semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips.

This recipe is so versatile. I’ve made mini-sized cookies but you can make medium or large-sized ones. And you can even turn them into ice-cream sandwiches.
