**DO NOT CREAM POWDERED SUGAR** I'm sure when done correctly these cookies are wonderful. I bake often, so when reading the recipe I knew that the powdered sugar was not intended to be creamed with the butter and white sugar. My husband however, who does not bake often, did not understand that. I think that when a recipe is written it should be assumed that the user is inexperienced. My rating is PURELY based on the way the recipe was written and not on the way the product turns out.

Yep, these are pretty awesome and very rich. The directions are clear and they turned out great with no changes. I agree with other reviewers about being generous with the powdered sugar. These would be really good with peanut butter chips in the dough and still adding the melted chocolate ones. I will make again.

Okay, so I messed up on the recipe and put the powdered sugar in the dough before noticing that the cookies should have been rolled in it, but they turned out fabulous! I didn't roll them in sugar since I would be afraid they might turn out too sweet after all. Next time I make them (and there will be a next time...yum), I will make them the same way. These are so good. My kids said they taste like a mix between a chocolate chip cookie and a brownie - two of my favorite things. So glad I stumbled across this recipe. I was looking for a cookie that didn't require baking soda becasue I didn't have any on hand.

These were fantastic! Both me and my boyfriend gobbled up the whole batch in about three days! I kept them in the fridge to prevent the drying other reviews mentioned. I thought they were good cold. They had the texture of a cookie on the outside but a brownie on the inside! GREAT!

Amazing!! These are, I think, the best chocolate cookies I have ever eaten! I used the tip from other reviewers to add some cocoa. It is the only change I made, and they are awesome. I will absolutely make these again. They will look beautiful on holiday platters too:-)

I goofed...I melted all 2 cups of chips and added it to the batter. I then added white chips in the mix (about 1 cup). They turned out very delicious!!! They are very fudge/brownie like. I didn't like them rolled in the confectioner's sugar. They were too sweet.
