Not only are they Men’s Favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies, they are my favorite chocolate chip cookies as well! Everyone has their favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe, and this is mine. No matter how good you make something, your mom and grandma can always make it better- right? Well that is what I think anyway. This was the recipe my mom has always used, so of course, I had to steal it when I left home! In the last few years, I have tried a few other chocolate chip cookie recipes (ones which got thousands of good reviews) but I still find that this is my favorite. There are no special ingredients in this recipe- just good old-fashioned chocolate chip cookies. Soft or crunchy, they are deeelish!
