They really are nice and soft and chewy! The kids love them. One son actually asked for a batch with no chocolate chips!!! He just wants the cookie part cause it's so good. The only thing I did differently was to add the sugars to the butter when I creamed them because the butter and liquids never came together for me. Great recipe, Tracy!

I am a married mom of two, a 10 yr old daughter and a 17 month old son. I love to cook and bake. I have a little chi dog named Babydog Graves and he is about 6 pounds, full grown, my buddy! I dream of one day my hubby and I taking a trip to Jamaica and having a romantic time. I enjoy being a full time stay at home mom and wife to a terrific man.
