Chocolate Chip Cookies

Everyone seems to have their personal "go-to" chocolate chip cookie recipe and there's definitely nothing wrong with that. Since there are so many different types, it's not surprising either. Some people like them chewy, some crunchy. Some people like them super chocolaty, and some not so much. A lot of people like soft cookies, while others like harder cookies that will soak up some milk. One thing we all want is a delicious cookie, though. And I think I finally found my new "go-to" for that.

It didn't surprise me that Nestle would have an awesome chocolate chip cookie recipe. The packaged dough they make that you slice and bake was always a favorite of mine growing up. We'd often times find ourselves only baking half the dough and munching on the other half uncooked. Don't lie, I know you all did this, too.

These cookies were chewy and soft and would be perfect with a tall glass of cold milk. If soft and chewy are your type of chocolate chip cookies, give these a try. You'll love them!
