My fiance's family had an Easter cookout yesterday and we made theese cookies, and they were great! We made six dozen and they were good and soft! Keep up the good baking! -
I was worried when I pulled them from the oven because they didn't look done. They looked to fluffy but I took them out and let them sit. These are being used for gifts so I was worried about them bieng to hard. ABSOLUTELY NOT! They are 4 days old and the flavor is still just as good AND still very soft! Thanks agian! -
If you like a crispy chocolaty cookie, these are awesome! I used half semi-sweet mini morsels and half mini M & M's. Thanks for a real good cookie,LiisaN

<P>I'm a Mom of three boys: 19, 16, 13 (Josh, Jake and Jonah) and a 1 yr old golden retriever-Jethro. I work full-time as a Medicare compliance analyst for a non-profit health insurer. I love to cook - although I don't always have enough time to do as I'd like to do. I don't especially care to do the clean up though- but who does?? Food in general brings people together and makes people feel at ease. My boys love to help out in the kitchen-especially if I'm baking bread or baking sweet treats for them. If anyone were to ask them what I put in a recipe - first two ingredients they'd list would be olive oil and garlic -- (well not for the sweet stuff..at least)! I'm constantly browsing to see how I can alter/influence my family's eating - as well as trying to get it on the table quickly! My boys are all hockey players - so I spend a lot of time at the ice arena. When I have time of my own..I try to get on the golf course or read cookbooks.</P>
