In general I prefer a thick, soft and chewy chocolate chip cookie. \u00a0The flat crunchy kind aren’t what I typically make or choose to enjoy with a glass of milk. \u00a0 I’ve made my fair share of chocolate chip cookies and have some favorite recipes. \u00a0These<\/a>, these<\/a> and these<\/a> are probably the ones I’ve enjoyed the most. \u00a0Going back in the blog archives makes me nostalgic and a little embarrassed of my food photos and writing. \u00a0Yeesh. \u00a0But, this is why I blog! \u00a0Documenting the good and the not so good, and seeing how my cooking, blogging and photography has changed. \u00a0Anyway, back to the cookies.<\/p>\n

I made these cookies for a friend who recently moved into a new house. \u00a0I kept a few for myself. \u00a0They are thin, but still chewy, which I realize now is what I really crave in a cookie. \u00a0And they are buttery and sweet and delicious. \u00a0The small amount of toffee pieces adds something special to these. \u00a0The original recipe, from The Magnolia Bakery Cookbook<\/a>, calls for mini chocolate chips. \u00a0I used regular sized chips and think that it’s really a personal preference. \u00a0With mini chips you’ll get chocolate in each bite. \u00a0With the big chips you’ll end up with some bites with no chips, but the bites with chips are super yummy. \u00a0I love big hunks of chocolate in a cookie. \u00a0I guess a solution for that could be to use more big chips… \u00a0Other than the chips and the addition of the toffee pieces, I didn’t do anything differently. \u00a0This is a terrifically simple recipe. \u00a0Enjoy!<\/p>\n
