These are the cookies with which only gods are blessed.
Yet somehow, Dave snuck in a stole the recipe from the butler's recipe cabinet... Way to go, Dave!! ~fafs

I'm beginning to suspect that God Himself handed Dave the recipe for these on two stone tablets. Okay, not really, but they do taste that good.

I'm getting the feeling that I'd be an idiot not to try these.

The chips worked out fine. I prefer the chunks, more flavor explosion!
They were the HIT of the bake sale! Thanks! |

i made these again tonight, so i decided to bump this thread. there's a lot of new folks, and if you have never made these, you're only doing you and your taste buds a disservice.
they're like heaven in cookie form. -------------------- -Janelle
