After reading how many negative reviews this recipe received, I had to share my experience. This was one of the best chocolate chip cookies I have ever made. I found this recipe a week ago and have made it 3 times since due to the positive response. They have turned out every time. I personally don't follow baking times but just when the edges start to brown, I take them out. They're soft & chewy; even days later. I ran out of brown sugar and substituted one cup white sugar with 1 1/2 tablespoons of molasses the last time and they still turned out, even better I think. Try it with m&ms! People tell me (and I agree) that it tastes just like the Mrs. Fields cookies..
