I made a half batch of these last week and absolutely loved them. The cookie is so buttery and flavorful and matches very well with the chips and nuts. I have a tempermental oven and found that I had to bake the cookies at 350 degrees to avoid too-done edges and not-done-enough centers. Thanks for a great recipe!

First time I made cookies where I had to throw some out because they didn't get eaten, and I only cooked half the recipe. Maybe too sweet, I don't know. Something was just off
