Whereas this recipe would have passed for "healthier" 5 years ago, TransFat has been proven to be the unhealthy pseudo-fat that it is. Want healthy? Stick to the regular recipes, and downsize your intake! Don't use Margarine or regular shortening in your cooking! These cookies were flavorless, and my Mother won't be making them again.

Loved the texture. After I had all the ingredients in the mixer, I found out (to my dismay) that I was out of regular chocolate chips. I only had white chocolate chips and raspberry chocolate ones. I opted for the raspberry ones. I didn't care for the flavor with these chips but I will be making it again this weekend with the right chips. Had a rich wonderful taste and in spite of the raspberry chips...the cookies have disappeared already.

This is a great change for your basic chocolate chip cookies! Everytime I make them they are scarfed up before they sit out for 5 minutes! This is THE chocolate chip cookie recipe for me!

These cookies were a hit at my party! Though after i realized I forgot to add the brown sugar!!! But they still tasted GOOD! Without the brown sugar it tasted like cream cheese short bread cookies! they melt in your mouth!

These were delicious! I did reduce the chocolate chips by a 1/2 cup and I used mini chips. I would by no means advertise these as "healthy" though! They work well using the reduced fat cream cheese. Just make sure the margarine and cheese are softened. By the way these make about 2 1/2 dozen cookies.

With the exception of using all butter instead of margarine, I followed this recipe exactly. The cookies don't spread; whether I tried the little mountains *or* the pre-flattened ones, they were very cakey, and had no taste at all; couldn't even taste the cream cheese. Stick to one of the more traditional recipes.

The dough was really delicious but once baked, these cookies weren't that good. In fact, I would almost say they were gross.

These are okay. Something different. I prefer the old-fashioned choc chip cookie though. The kids loved 'em!

What wonderful cookies. I just love 'em and so does my family. I used 1/2 C butter and 1/2 C margarine. I will make these often. Thanks for such a great recipe.

These are the best! I usually put them in the fridge after 2 days (if there are any left), and they taste like cookie dough when they are cold.

These cookies were excellent! They did have a cake-like texture, but I considered this a plus because I like soft cookies. My husband, who usually is not into sweets, liked these also. I would suggest using a margarine with a good flavor because it will contribute to the taste.

These cookies are okay. They are EXTREMELY cakey. Cake like in the middle and crunchy on the outer rims. I followed the recipe 100% and couldn't really taste the cream cheese. They don't spread either, so I ended up with many little mountains! I think these might be better off called "cream cheese chocolate chip bars"! Thanks for the recipe though!

Great flavor. I actually like the cake-like cookies because they are so good to dip in milk! I found that they were ready after 14 minutes of bake time. Definitely a keeper.

I love the cakey texture of these cookies. I usually use fat free cream cheese and yoghurt spread instead of the margarine to reduce the fat - and they're still fabulous! Try adding cocoa powder and white chocolate chips as an alternative
