The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever

Introduction

I found this recipe, and it completely changed the way I think about cookies. The first time I baked them, my neighbor begged me to bring a batch to every block party—and my kids’ friends practically camp out in the kitchen whenever they smell these baking. Soft and chewy in the center, with crisp golden edges and pools of melted chocolate—these really are the best chocolate chip cookies ever.
