I was craving chocolate chip cookies but was too lazy to actually make cookies. I followed Parsley72's advice and baked them in a 13x9 in pan. Thanks!

I made this in a smaller pan (I used a 13 x 9), and I highly recommend using this size. They come out the perfect thickness, and they are crisp and buttery, yet moist and chewy! Wonderful! I'll make this again (in the 13 x 9 pan, of course). Thanx for posting this one!

My family loves this recipe, which we call "cookie brittle". It's very crunchy and buttery. Sometimes we make it with butterscotch chips.
