I've made this recipe several times, and each time I bring it in they are gone in a matter of minutes! Use the Cadbury milk chocolate eggs, they taste AMAZING in these cookies!

I wasn't too impressed with this recipe. It seemed to lack flavor. I didn't make the cookies jumbo sized I did them normal size. I just didn't think they were all that great... They turned out alright, but I don't think I will make them again...

This cookie is excellent. I baked them for 13 minutes and they were just right.

Didn't realize until nearly through the recipe that I had no baking powder, but the cookies turned out well anyhow. I used walnuts instead of pecans, and figure it was equally good. Very tasty!

Best chocolate chip cookie recipe! Way to go Kansas!!! I used homemade toffee 1C., 1C. peanuts, and 1C.semi-sweet squares. Turned out Yummy! I'm throwing my other recipes for chocolate chip cookies in the trash. This is here to stay.

I have made this recipe SEVERAL times! It is delicious, and many of my friends request this recipe! One modification that they go CRAZY for is to replace the chocolate chips with the Cadbury milk chocolate eggs! It adds color and it tastes delicious!

Very good cookies! I substituted raisins for the pecans (I didn't have any pecans.) and made the cookies a little smaller. They are wonderful, and I will make them again.
