One of the best chocolate chip cookie recipes I've found so far. I would definitely make these again!

this was a really good cookie, i didnt add nuts in because there is a nut allergy in my family but they were still really good

chopped pecans do not belong in a chocolate chip cookie recipe. Should be filed under Chocolate Chip and Pecan Cookie Receipe.

Our family just loved these, substituted walnuts for pecans and added raisins and for us, we just loved them. They're easy to make but don't last long, even with the size of them. I made 3 racks of 6 and in 3 days they are gone.

These have replaced my old stand-by chocolate chip cooke recipe. Very, very good. I made them with all butter just because I didn't have shortening.
