These are very good and a great alternative when you're tired of making the ol' standby chocolate chip cookies. I tried these to take to a cookie exchange and was very happy with the results. I made them for the second time today and added 1/4 tsp. more baking soda and chocolate chips. The extra baking soda made them stand up better and they didn't flatten out, as my first batch had turned out rather flat, although still soft and chewy. The chocolate chips made this batch top notch!

Used Halloween candy miniatures--three miniature bars to equal one regular bar. I thought these would taste like garden variety peanut butter cookies, but they really do taste like Butterfingers. We enjoyed the chewy texture of the unaltered recipe.

I made these and had no problems. I got a lot of compliments on them. I also found this recipe with the purpose of getting rid of Halloween candy. I think chilling the dough is very important.

These were the best cookies I have ever tasted! My husband took the batch to work and several there said the same thing. This is my new 5* recipe to take to pot-lucks!

Great Cookie idea! I used 5th Avenue bars added an extra 1/4 t of baking soda, refrigerated overnight, and baked at 375 for 10 minutes. Then I let them cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes before moving to the cooling rack. Made about 36 soft and chewy cookies. Next time I might add one of the egg yolks as my dough was pretty crumbly. Very delicious!

I made these for a week-end away with friends and they were a big hit. I used 1 egg instead of the two egg whites, and three chocolate bars (that's all I had, but the flavour was excellent). I followed the method as written. The recipe made 4 1/2 dozen.
