The Search for the Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie


Not So Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies

Last summer I made chocolate chip cookies for a going away potluck. They were the best chocolate chip cookies ever! Very thin and crisp around the edges, but soft and chewy in the middle. I wanted to make the cookies again, for the 4th of July, but I couldn't find the recipe! I thought I had used a Martha Stewart recipe so I looked at her website and thought this recipe might be it. Unfortunately, it was not. The cookies didn't spread nearly enough and therefore were much thicker than the cookie I wanted.

There is one more recipe on Martha's website that I'm really, really hoping is the right one. For now, here is the recipe for these chocolate chip cookies...which were good but just not the perfect chocolate chip cookies.
