For some reason my original review didn't show up...so, here goes again ;-) We loved these cookies! They are chewy as stated and they are also just the right amount of sweetness. I will be making these often. They are great for satisfying those chocolate cravings! I did everything according to the recipe except I used 1 generous Tablespoon of dough per cookie instead of a marble size and baked them just a bit longer. Thanks Chef #284771!
