These soft chocolaty cookies can be easily altered to make several different varieties—I've added everything from mints to macadamia nuts to them. My husband an I live on a mixed farm with our young daughter and son. Among my favorite hobbies are gardening and baking.

These cookies are average. I was disappointed because the recipe and picture looked so good! I used peanut butter chips instead of vanilla. Just nothing spectacular in my opinion...

These were real easy to make and turned out good, fudgy on the inside. They bake in the shape u put them on the sheet, peaks and all so don't expect the uniform round shape. Overall- would try again with different variations of chips used.

I made these for my boyfriend to take with his lunches this week. I added his favorite peanut M&Ms as toppers. They are all gone! Well done:)

Good, but not great. They were too crispy on the outside for me.
