Great! Great! Great! I followed suggestions and made a few add-ons of my own: 2 cups flour, 2 eggs, and using 1 cup white chips, 1 cup semi sweet chips, 1/2 cup walnuts, 1 big tsp cinnamon, and using 2 tsp vanilla. The baking temp is perfect for 8min timing too. All the dry ingredients DID fit with good packing down, and the layering looked beautiful! (flour/baking soda mixed, 1/2 Bwn. Sugar, white sugar, 1/2 brn sugar, cinnamon, ch.chips, walnuts, white chips) I did refridgerate the dough for about 15 minutes before baking, and I think that helped them stay big and puffy without falling flat. These turned out so beautiful and yummy, and the cinnamon really added a holiday feeling that was not overwhelming. This will be my "must use" mix from now on- thank you for this great recipe!

I LOVE this recipe and used it to make 12 jars of cookies in a jar for friends and family -VERY simple to make and they taste SO yummy -worth making even if you do not make them to share in a jar. I modified the recipe. I did not add 1.3/4 eggs, only used 1 egg (this did not affect the taste at all) and only used 1.5 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips. This recipe is out of this World, and if you are hesitant to make it, do not! Whenever I attempted to make a homemade cookie before, they never came out this good! FANTASTIC

Outstanding cookies and super easy to make! After trying a few "cookie in a jar" recipes, I can pretty much say these were the best looking and tasting cookies that came out of those jars! I did use 2 eggs and upped the flour to 2 cups to compensate. Perfection! This will be my one and only chocolate chip cookie recipe, with or without the jar! Thank you, Julia!

These are by far the best chocolate chip cookies I have made in a long time. I also made these jars the last 2 years for Christmas and they were a big hit! Awesome cookies.

These cookies were T-A-A-A-S-S-T-Y!!!!! My dad finished the whole batch during a movie *grumble. nothing left 4 me*!! How ever, This recipe was a bit... strange. 1 1/2 eggs? Also, they were as flat as paper when I pulled them out of the oven! Maybe I messed up somewhere...

Excellent as a gift! Have given it to best friend as part of gift basket for Christmas, he still has yet to make them. Guess I'll help him there, too :)

I wanted to make these for a gift, but I never really thought about trying them out. But I messed up and made too much and when it wouldn't fit in my jar I decided to use it to sample the cookies. I'm glad I did! They're delicious, even if they don't flatten the way cookies usually do. There was a lot of chocolate chips in it though, but I think that it made it yummier! I'm not a big fan of chocolate chip cookies, but I really love these. They look pretty in the jars and I hope that everyone I give them to likes them as well! Thanks for the recipe.

Jar itself presented really nice...was impressed with how pretty it looked. The cookies themselves TASTED great-but looked all weird. I tried three different tweaks (as recommended by ratings here) to the recipe before I put them into the jars-two full eggs, softened butter etc...and they still turned out weird looking to me. The taste was good as was the presentation in the jar though!

Sweet cookie, but I wound up with really dry dough. It could have been because I didn't melt the butter all the way. Next time, I would be sure to melt all of the butter.

It didn't turn out well for us. We didn't have butter so we used marg, and we used 2 eggs instead of 1/5, so that may have been why. If I were to try it again I would use fewer chocolate chips as well.

I too added a little extra flour and used two eggs... my "cookies" were more cake-like than anything but they had a good flavour. I think next time I will call them muffin tops or make them into cookie bars.

This recipe is yummy, not to mention pretty when you spice up the jar with ribbon. And this is how you get 1 1/2 eggs: if you read the info. up at the top, the original recipe was for 2 dozen. It has been changed (probably by allrecipes.com) to make 1 dozen. That means that the original recipe used 3 eggs. I assume they just divided 3 in half without really thinking about it.

I made this for a fundraiser (and forgot to take a picture). The jars turned out pretty cute - next time I would put the darker ingredients on the bottom so they will show better, the fabric I put on the lids hid the chocolate chips. I'm only giving this recipe a 3 star rating because the 1 1/2 egg instruction is ridiculous. I instrcuted to use 2 eggs, but I did not mix a batch for myself so I don't know how they turned out. Thanks for the recipe.

I think the author of the recipe may have meant to add one whole egg, and one egg yolk. I have a chewey cookie recipe that calls for just that. If you want a softer cookie use all brown sugar. I hope this helps! Happy baking everyone! Rebecca

The cookies were superb! I plan on using them as a christmas gift! I would like to make a note as to the using half an egg though, it is very simple (and I am going to add this to th note card on the jars as well) simply beat an egg in a small bowl then take half off that (about 1 1/2 to 2 tbsp depending on the size of the egg)

This is a great recipe and I get requests for these cookies all the time. I just make the recipe as a regular cookie mix instead of giving it away and they always come out great!
