Chocolate Chip Cookies
A Picture can say a thousand words and boy this picture told me to make these cookies a.s.a.p. Click here to see the picture. Now everyone knows I love Toll House and thought they were the best. After trying this recipe I have decided to add it to my TOP 10 favorites. This cookie is delicious and I think I need to make both and do a blind taste test. It is too hard. The only thing I changed is I reduced the granulated sugar a little, it was a little sweet for me. After I had made a change to the Nestle's recipe, I used half shortening and half butter and was happy with the texture and they always taste delicious. My boys loved the cookies

I always enjoy finding different chocolate chip cookie recipes. I like that you added the festive M&M's to these and that there are walnuts in them. They look wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Rhonda! I'm so pleased you tried and loved the cookies. When I found this recipe about 15 years ago, I never went back to any other recipe. Yours looks wonderful and I will have to try reducing the sugar too!
