What's not to love about these sweet and buttery chocolate-studded cookies?

We think that the "best" recipe is really a matter of personal taste.

And obviously chocolate chip cookies come in all different kinds of styles - big, bite-size, chewy, soft and cakey, crunchy and crispy - just to name a few.

It's hard for me to say that I really have one favorite - it sort of depends on what kind of mood I am in.

Some times I want just simple chocolate chip cookies with very few ingredients while other times I want them to be more complex with dark and milk chocolate and fancy nuts!

Be sure to check out the video at the bottom of the page - it describes how to adjust flour, butter and sugar in your recipe to give you the type of chocolate chip cookies you are looking for: cakey, soft and chewy, thin or crisp.
