Just a comment - this is not the recipe I have that claims to be from Neiman Marcus...mine has pulverized rolled oats and no coffee in it.

Great cookies, the espresso powder made an interesting flavor twist to the cookies.

They taste good but i found the dough dry, and I used 1 1/2 cups of flour not the 1 3/4 cups called for. I also added almond flavoring.

These were fabulous! I used regular ground coffee and they were delicious all the same.

The first time I made these it was exactly by the recipe.These are a great small batch recipe.Personally I can't always afford good chocolate chips and I can't stand cheap ones. I find that this batter(minus the coffee) holds up well to other add ins...So far,I've tried several different dried fruits,nuts and leftover candy all with great success.

The $250 story is TRUE! My aunt was the one who was charged for it. However, the true cookie recipe is a bit different. She bought two salads, a scarf, and asked to buy the recipe. The waitress said she could if she paid "two fifty". My aunt assumed it meant $2.50. She called the account office at Neiman Marcus after receiving the bill and they refused to refund her. So, she told them that she was going to have $250 dollars worth of fun with the recipe. She printed it in our family's cookbook, and gave the recipe out to everyone she could think of and told them to give it out to others. So, there you have it. I assure you that the story is true, but like I said...the real recipe is slightly different.

These were the best homemade chocolate chip cookies that I have ever tasted! They were so moist and the instant coffee gave them a great twist. I will definitely be making these quite often.

These were good, but not the "to die for" cookie I expected. I think I prefer regular tollhouse cookies.

Mmm Mmm Mmm! I've finally been able to make these perfect with the right adjustments. Here they are, for future convenience to anyone else wanting to make these cookies just right: 1. Cut down the sugar to about 1/2 cup brown sugar. But kept the same amount of white sugar. 2. Omitted 1/2 cup flour and replaced it with 1/2 cup oatmeal that I ground into a floury consistency in my blender. Then, sifted with the rest of the dry ingredients. 3. Baked at 300 degrees for 20 min for a tastier cookie in general. It may seem like the cookies will be too crispy and crunchy after cooling, but they keep the same texture/consistency the next day. 4. Oh, and of course I threw in many more chocolate chips than required! Hope this review helped! =)

This is a fairly decent cookie. I did like the crisp outside with the tender middle. The flavor was good. However, I and others consider myself to be a master cookie baker and have a cookie recipe that runs circles around this one. Though an enjoyable cookie, it will not send you swooning or make you hum.

This was a very easy recipe and came out very nice. I followed the recipe w/ the exception of baking, I followed a previous review's recommendation and baked at 300 degrees/20 minutes and they came out perfect. My boyfriend remarked that this is the best cookies he has ever eaten in his life! will definitely make these again.

I followed this recipe to the T. I rolled the dough two different ways: I made one inch balls and left them like that, and the other I made one inch balls but flattened them. I baked both types for 10 minutes. The first one came out a nice soft cookie, and the flattened one came out crunchier. I prefer the crunchier one, but the other is very good too. They don't taste exactly like the Neiman Marcus cookies, which was expected, but they were a little too sweet for me. I'll probably cut down the brown sugar to 3/4 cup instead of a full cup.

I really liked the flavor in these. I used chopped chocolate bars for the chocolate and they were probably the best choc chip cookies I've ever made. They did get hard after a day or so, but the flavor was great!

Every time I make these cookies, someone asks for the receipe! I have made a couple of adjustments --increase the espresso powder to a full tablespoon and use bittersweet chocolate chips. Also, sometimes I pulverise one packet of plain instant oatmeal and decrease the flour by 1/4 cup. Dried cranberries are also a delicious addition.
