Too sweet, too greasy and not as thick as I would have liked, even after chilling the dough. A real disappointment.

This recipe was a great guide. I used an earlier reviewers suggestions of changing the white sugar to 1C and adding 1/2C of brown sugar and changing the flour to 2 3/4C. I also added one tsp. of almond extract. Delish!

So many of the reviews warn that these cookies come out too flat. I used some baking powder and that completely eliminated that problem. They're fluffy and tasty. I also added some white chocolate chips and they were just sinful. The only problems that I ran into were these: I made a double batch to take camping and that was a completely obscene amount of cookies, also, they did not travel well. They tended to crumble easily.

I made it exactly as the recipes said. It was amazing! I love this recipe. I made sure to keep it at the right baking time. Mine was about 8 minutes and they were soft. If you like them crunchy then maybe 10 minutes would work. Thanks for the recipe! I will make them again with chocolate chunks in them! Delish!

Good easy recipe to follow however I wanted my cookies thick and chewy so here is what I did- I used 3/4 cup butter and 1/2 cup shortening. I cut the white sugar down to 1 cup and added 1/2 cup brown sugar for moisture. I upped the flour to 2 3/4 cup. Changing the recipe as such produced very workable dough which I rolled into balls. I baked the cookies at 350F for 11 minutes and let cool on the pan for 3 minutes. Perfect chocolate cookies that taste like chewy fudgy brownies. They stay moist and chewy in the cookie jar very well.

Pretty good! Although, I halved the recipe to make it for 15 and it still made 21 cookies that were pretty large. They fall apart when I was taking them off the sheet though that may just be my lackluster cooking skills. Definitely recommend!

Warning: I didn't try the recipe as written, so I'm not sure how it would turn out without adjustments!! I know many reviewers noted that the cookies were really flat. I think that it's because of the high amount of sugar in the original recipe. Sugar acts as a liquifier in baked goods. Because of this, I only used 1 cup of (brown)sugar (for more flavor). Also, I only used 1 cup of butter, because that's all I had, and white whole wheat all-purpose flour. The cookies were a tiny bit on the dry side. They didn't take long to bake at all. Next time, I'll try 1 1/2 cups of brown sugar. I liked that they didn't spread much, and stayed like little mountains. For more flavor, I added a little cinnamon to the dough, and chocolate chips and walnuts, too. Lastly, I glazed them with a cinnamon sugar glaze while they were still warm. All in all, they turned out pretty darn good. I will definitely make them again.

These had great flavor but flattened out too much for my tastes. I prefer a puffy cookie and will try this recipe again with baking powder instead. I loved the flavor and will make these again.

The taste is awesome. I used the recipe as is, but I sprayed a little Pam for baking on the cookie sheets. Never would they have worked out on ungreased cookie sheets. I baked them for 11 minutes, let them cool 5 before removing from the sheets. That seemed to work best. I sprinkled powdered sugar on the cooled cookies and they really tasted great. However, they are flatter than pancakes. Not sure why, but it didn't make them any less delicious.

This exact recipe is an old family favorite! It's a very easy recipe to follow, and it's pretty quick! You can also shake things up by adding nuts, chocolate chips, dried fruit, etc. If the cookies aren't sweet enough, try glazing with powdered sugar + hot water. You can coat them, drizzle them, etc.

Great cookie, I tweaked it a little by adding a hersheys cordial cherry kiss pushed into warm cookie then put back into oven just a minute to melt then pushed a maraschino cherry into the melted kiss and topped with melted milk chocolate.

These cookies are amazing. I think they would taste good with white chocolate chips and/or macademia nuts, but 1 cup of sugar is enough.

Delicious! We had a recipe like this when I was growing up. They are a bit tempermental while cooking. Undercooking makes them gooey, overcooking makes them crunchy. It may take a sheet or two to get them just right, but well worth it!!!
