Chewy Secret Chocolate Chip Cookies
"This is a take on the Nestle Tollhouse recipe. Only one added ingredient, dark brown sugar, melted butter and a smidgen more flour make the difference... I had to sell my soul to my aunt so she'd tell me why hers tasted soooo good! Chewy chocolate chip cookie heaven!!!!!"

Yeah baby! I put these in an airtight containter and they are still chewy and delish two days later! I used organic molasses and Ghiradelli semi sweet chips and I have not been able to stop eating them! Thanks for a great new favourite! -
Wowee Zoweee! These are something special. The molasses adds a carmelly flavor to the cookies. I don't think I could make them any other way now! Thanks Che~Sara! -
These are not pretty cookies, but they sure do taste wonderful. They came out flat and monochromatic, kind of like the color of the milk chocolate chips I used. However, they are very tasty, chewy and soft. They were enjoyed by grownups and kids alike. Great alternative to the Tollhouse chocolate cookie recipes. -
Throw out all the other recipes, if you like lighly crisp buttery edges and chewy middles this recipe is for you. And, I actually think that they get better overnight if you can make them last that long! -
Best chocolate chip cookies ever!! I didn't have molasses so I substituted honey and they turned out perfect. I will use this recipe from now on. I will probably use milk chocolate chips next time just becasue I prefer them.

I'm happily married and have two boys (age 9 and 14 months) and a 1 month old little girl! I am a basketball fanatic, love to travel and love the oregon coast. I love classical music and when I cook, it's always Vivaldi (the only composer I don't like is Beethoven) I love making new recipes all the time now and enjoy learning about the people who posted them. Thanks in advance for any recipe I try of yours!
