Sour Cream Chocolate Cookies
These soft chocolaty sour cream cookies can be easily altered to make several different varieties —I've added everything from mints to macadamia nuts to them. —Tina Sawchuk, Ardmore, Alberta

I'm on Lent so I didn't have any of these cookies. But, my husband says they deserve a "5", chewy and soft on the inside just as other reviewers have commented.
I just printed out this recipe & I'm going to make them as soon as I clean up my kitchen. They sound so good. I let you know how I do with them. Just curious, about how many does this recipe make?
Easy, moist & delicious!
Baked for 13 minutes at 350 in an electric oven. Put in 3 kinds of chocolate chips. This time, I am going to add mini marshmallows to make rocky road cookies
I love to bake and do it almost every day! I have a chocolate chocolate cookie that is my go to but I love trying new recipes. I came across this one and I'm impressed! I lessened the sugar by 1/4 cup, added a little more salt and put a cream cheese frosting on top. I have taken them to a family party, a wedding shower and a tennis event and people rave about them and ask could they please have the recipe. This recipe should have many more 5 star reviews.
I came accross this recipe originally because I'm looking for ways to use up a tub of sour cream before it expires. Little did I know at the time that these would be the best double chocolate cookies I've ever made/eaten! I replaced the white chocolate chips with..... You guessed it, more semi sweet chocolate chips! They came out amazing, soft inside with a slight crunch outside! I think next time I'll try forming them more into balls so they come out prettier. These are just amazing, thanks for this recipe!
This is more of a note to myself! I like to several batches of cookies and then bake them all at one time, so I usually refrigerate all of my cookies. This recipe doesn't lend itself well to that method. The dough became VERY sticky after chilling. Yummy cookie!
Made these tonight and was not disappointed! Very yummy right out of the oven. Was craving chocolate but didn't want the usual so found this recipe and wanted to try it, with the sour cream it really sounded interesting. Glad I did - two thumbs up, with cookie crumbs on them!
These cookies were delicious! I did not have any nuts to add so I just added all chocolate chips but in the future I will add nuts because you can tell that they will be delicious as well. As Tina said, you can tell that this recipe can be altered with using different add ins. Thanks again!
excellent recipe. Used only chocolate chips. Family liked them and will make again.
