Why is it that when I try to make cookies they usually turn out too flat or too crispy, but when I throw together a basic chocolate chip cookie recipe with ingredients that I have in my pantry I make the absolute perfect chewy cookies!?
I didn’t have dark chocolate chips so I used bark thins coconut and almond dark chocolate pieces and I think it made all the difference. A testament that simplicity is truly best recipe below.
