This recipe used to be on the Jello vanilla pudding box years ago (I still have it taped to the inside of one of my cabinet doors). I just made these again yesterday for the first time in many many moons and they are as good as ever. This is the gold standard of chocolate chip cookies, imho. Two of these fresh out of the oven with a big tall glass of ice cold milk, it just doesn't get any better than this!

Wellllll, not sure what went wrong, but these did not turn out for me at all and I was soooo looking forward to these after reading all the rave reviews. I read a lot of the reviews and made a few alterations such as not forming into crescents, but just made half into the cloverleaf rolls and half into rolls just dropped onto a cookie sheet. I did not deviate at all from the ingredients or the method of using the dough cycle on my bread machine. The dough was still really dense when I put them in the oven and they did not rise at all while baking. I do want to try these again, maybe I should try new yeast. So, as disappointing as this has been, I'm still giving this 4.5 stars because I'm 99% sure the result was due to operator error.

Really good! Made a couple of changes: used about a pound of ground chicken rather than the chopped; used all green chilies (NO jalapeno for this wimp!); added a can of chopped tomatoes and a can of corn; used one can of chicken broth (because we like it thicker); just a pinch of cayenne (see disclaimer above); pureed one can of beans as others done; and left out the cheese. Will defintely make this again!
