I only made 1/2 recipe but wishing I had made them all. The combo of the butter, all the brown sugar, the melted white chips and the nand mixing.....makes for a delightful cookie! These were gone in a heartbeat! Note: make sure NOT to bake too long, but if you do they are great dipped in a glass of ice cold milk!

My all time favorite thing to do is cook and bake. My love for cooking began my first year at college. It has grown into an obsession with recipes. Fortunately, my husband is supportive :) I love the Taste of Home magazines. Most of the recipes I try from their publications are outstanding. I also enjoy running long distances and exercising.
