Tips:
- To make the cookies even more flavorful, use a variety of chocolate chips, such as semisweet, dark, and milk chocolate. - For a chewier cookie, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. - If you don't have a cookie scoop, use a tablespoon to drop the dough onto the baking sheet. - Be careful not to overmix the dough, as this will make the cookies tough. - If you want soft and chewy cookies, bake them for 10-12 minutes. For crispy cookies, bake them for 12-14 minutes. - Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack. This will help them to set and prevent them from breaking.Conclusion:
