The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever

I am not a food blogger, however I found a recipe for the best chocolate chip cookies ever and I had to share.

I will provide the link right away before I go into why this recipe is the best one I have found, so here it is: Best Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie

Okay, so why are these so awesome? Let me tell you..

Since moving to Denmark 10 years ago, I have not been able to make a decent chocolate chip cookie. For one, finding chocolate chips are next to impossible, and all recipes here are in grams instead of cups that I am used too, so there is always issues with conversions.. etc. For the most part, I had given up on making them. Every recipe I have tried just did not work out. The usually turned out too hard. In fact.. I even tried this one at some point… and it was a total failure. However the other day I was having a total sugar craving, and had everything I need to make them, and I really wanted some good chocolate cookies, so I decided to give them ago.

However, this time I was careful to follow all the directions. You see, normally I am a throw a bunch of stuff in a bowl kind of baker.. most of the time it works out, not so much with cookies though. But I was determined to for them to turn out! So I made sure to use exact measurements, including that extra egg yolk and not an entire egg instead…

And they turned out perfect! Twice! Because you know, there is 6 people in this house and we ate the first batch in one day, so of course I had to make a second batch. Everyone agreed, these were awesome.. but then again.. I think my kids will eat anything with chocolate in them.. the husband too.

But here it the recipe again incase you missed it above: Best Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie
