These cookies really do taste amazing as the title indicates. I made them exactly as the recipe specified and didn't change or adjust anything. It produced moist and chewy cookies that I will definitely make again. My only other observation is that I thought they spread out quite a bit on the baking sheet and most were so thin and flat that they fell apart as I transferred them to a cooling rack (after cooling on the baking sheet first). I wonder if reducing the oven temperature a bit would produce a slightly thicker cookie that would hold up better to normal handling. Nonetheless, they were quite a treat. Thanks, Chef EBT. Made for 2009 Fall Pick-A-Chef.

Baked these for Fall 09 Pac Premie Adoption. The only thing I did was omit Walnuts, and increase the chocolate chips to a full cup. OMG these are simply delicious, and moist with good chewyness. Thank You for a great cookie recipe.
