Great recipe! I finally got bored with the recipes from the backs of bags and the cookbooks in the house, so I decided to find a new one. This is definitely my go-to chocolate chip cookie recipe now. I sometimes add a bag of butterscotch chips instead of nuts for a different kinda cookie.

I have been in pursuit of the ultimate chocolate chip cookie recipe for some time. I have tried many recipes and this is by far my favorite. If you like a crispy, awesome tastng chocolate chip cookie, look no further, this is the recipe for you. I even think this batter can be used many other ways, I will add crushed pecans, no chips and it will be identicle to the famous cookie we are familiar with. I will also add peanut butter and milk chocolate chips for a different twist on this cookie. Do yourself a favor and try this recipe.

I made as directed, and found these cookies the type I have been searching for: crisp, buttery and crumbly texture. I chilled the dough ~45 minutes before baking, and (like another reviewer) they are the first chocolate chip cookie that did not go "flat" on me! Thank you for sharing this recipe.

I found this recipe to be a typical chocolate chip cookie. It was greasy and too sweet. But a crisp cookie that was good dunked in milk

Nothing special. I didn't find them greesy. I expected flatter cookies. They are crunchy. I wouldn't make them again.

These cookies are FABULOUS!!!!!!!!! I loved them as did my children! :) Perfectly crispy edges, wonderfully buttery and chewy center. I would add about 1/2 cup more chocolate chips next time, but so good!! The dough could stand on its own :) Thank you!!

Overall, this was a dry cookie. I scaled to 24, used canola oil in place of vegetable and only a handful of crushed walnuts. I ran out of time and had to refrigerate the dough overnight before making. The next day, I let dough come to room temperature before baking. My first tray was 1 1/2" cookies baked for minimal time stated, bottoms came out too brown. Next tray was 2 1/2" cookies and these were better. I placed in an airtight container overnight but no difference in texture.

These are very good and I even baked them a bit too long. I like softer, cakey choc chip cookies, but my husband does not and these are very good. I used 1/2 shortening and 1/2 margarine, cut down on the oil to 2/3 C., added 2T of 1/2 and 1/2 and used a combo of semi and milk choc chips. There is a bit of a taste from the cream of tartar in them so I may try using a bit less next time, but I will make these again. If you like a crispier cookie definitely try these!

Just like everyone else, I'm very particular about my chocolate chip cookies. Frankly, I don't care if they're crispy, chewy or cakey so long as they're delicious and baked properly. The debate will go on forever as to which is "the best" as there are so many good recipes--and this is certainly one of them. I prepared them exactly as the recipe directs, wanting to judge the outcome for myself, and they were perfect. I chilled the dough to firm it a little to avoid spreading, then used a small ice cream scoop and flattened them just slightly--I found they come out of the oven much as they go in. These are perfectly shaped, rounded, beautiful cookies that didn't flatten out--picture perfect. It is not a novel idea to use both oil and butter in cookies, nor is the addition of cream of tartar. These were NOT greasy as some reviewers mentioned, and the cream of tartar gives them a pleasant, light and sandy texture. I don't know if this is "the best" chocolate chip cookie out there(because there will NEVER be one) but these sure are darn good! Thanks for sharing this great recipe!

So good that I had 4 yesterday! :) But I made them with egg substitute and splenda baking mix. A little healthier and still great tasting!

I really loved this recipe, there was a great balence of all the flavors. I noticed some of the reviews had a problem with the cookies being greasy. Because I did not have vegetable oil I used corn oil and had no grease what so ever, maybe this helped. I would have to try with veg. oil to compare. I will always use this recipe

My family did not like the texture, they seemed more like peanutbutter cookies in consistancy. Too much tartar for us too. Thanks though for the new idea

A week ago I took the top six Chocolate Chip Cookies from this website and made all of them. I took the cookies to work and my church social, and asked people to tell me which cookies were their favorite. This recipe was the second favorite, though it was an extremely close second. I did substitute applesauce for the oil, and because of that I had to add an extra cup of flour. Everyone loved their moistness and texture.

Absolutely excellent choc chippers! I really don't like chewy cookies, and these were crispy, easy to make and perfect. Just some advice: lessen the oil slightly. Thanks for the great recipe, Tina!

This is the chocolate chip cookie recipe that I have been looking for, and I to have been baking for years!! It has very light and crispy texture. I did decrease the oil to 3/4 cup, baking soda to l tsp, and salt to l/2 tsp. I used a hand beater for the creamed mixture; but when adding the dry ingredients, I used a wooden spoon, as suggested by Tina. Bake just until bottoms are golden brown, watch closely. Thank you so much for sharing Tina!!

I have a recipe I have used for a long time that is very similar to this only I use one tsp of cream of tartar and only one egg. They are the weirdest cookies ever. You will love them or hate them. Half of the people I have made them for don't care for them at all and the other half are absolutely addicted to these. These are not my favorite cookies but once in awhile I really crave them. They are almost more like a shortbread cookie with chocolate chips and not a traditional chocolate chip cookie at all.
