Yum! A few notes to myself (and anyone else who may appreciate them): 1) These cookies do not melt and expand while baking, so form into balls and smush to whatever size you want the final cookie to be, and feel free to place on baking sheet close together 2) These dont go much darker brown as they cook, pay attention to the time so they don't get too dry! 3) This recipe is delicious because of the delicate butteriness, do not add peanut butter or anything else with an overpowering flavour

These cookies are delicious and so easy to make. They're a bit like a chocolate shortbread with chocolate chips.

Delicious cookies! I also used regular sized chocolate chips in these with no problem. I found I couldn't roll the dough into balls, so I just dropped them on the sheet and pressed them with the floured glass bottom as the instructions indicated. These are great with a nice cold glass of milk. Thanks for posting. Made for the Tea Party Photo Forum 2010.

ooh! These just melt in your mouth! Love them! I made the recipe as written except dropping the chocolate chips to only 1 cup. Still a bit too much for me, maybe I'll try 1/2 a cup next time. This ones headed to my tried a true cook book!

Excellent cookie! I made these over the Christmas holiday because one of my friends was allergic to eggs. What a shame should she not have any holiday cookies to enjoy! These were a hit - even us those not allergic to eggs enjoyed them very much! The only change I made is that I didn't have any mini chocolate chips. So I just used the regular size, and put in one 12-oz bag. Thank you, luvthezaar, for posting this recipe! I've recently baked these since the holidays because I didn't have any eggs. Very tasty cookie!
