Moist, soft, chewy, delicious. I left out the nuts (just this time). I did use the Heath bits from the bag and I thought they tasted great. However next time I will try the candy pieces. I used a smaller scoop so they weren't giant just normal size.These, obviously, go so good with a big cup of milk.

These cookies are FANTASTIC!!! I made them for my co-workers one day and I got so many complements that they were the best cookies. Everyone loved how chewy they were and how they were like eating a brownie cookie. I used Ghirardelli Chocolate in my recipe, which added to the unbelievably delicious indulgence.
