I was skeptical of baking a cookie for so long, and at 300 degrees. I like my cookies a little under done and not crispy or cakey. For those who think all chocolate chip cookies taste the same, try this recipe! It is a very different tasting chocolate chip cookie. It was very good, and had complex layers of flavor, although I'm not sure it's my favorite. You have to take the cookies out at 15-17 minutes and let them sit on the baking sheet for an additional 20. You have to! I think that's why some people baked them too long and ended up with rocks, and others must have tasted them too soon thinking they were underdone. A good cookie!

I went threw pages and pages of reviews trying to find out how this recipe works after being frozen. I took a shot and here's what I have to say--this is a great cinnamon roll recipe. Everybody raved about them the first time I made them--one day in advance, sat in fridge overnight, and then baked in the morning. The next time I made them on a Wednesday up until the point of putting the cut cinnamon rolls in the pan. I put the entire pan of unbaked rolls in the freezer until Saturday. I took them out on Saturday and set them out on the counter for a few hours, and then refrigerated them overnight. I baked them Sunday morning. They were not the same, to me. They were more dense and less fluffy. The family still raved and said they couldn't tell a difference, but I could. I probably won't freeze them again. If I don't have time to make them the day before, then the fam will have to go without!
