Really good recipe! Its rich and full of chocolate! They came out chewy and oh so good. There is a reason this recipe beat out 2600 other recipes as the top cookie. My kids and I really liked them and will make them again.

The chocolate flavor was intense, and that is good, but the texture just wasn't what I wanted it to be. I'll keep looking.
