Foodie Friday: Super Soft Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe!

I used to think that I made awesome chocolate chip cookies. But now… I have to say that this is my favorite cookie recipe!  This super soft chocolate chip cookies recipe is to die for.  My husband (the cosmetic chemist) sometimes applies his work to baking.  In cosmetic chemistry process is equally as important as the ingredients.  The same can be said for baking.  The right process can make or break a good recipe.  With these cookies while the ingredients are important, so is the process.  So be sure to follow and process properly every time and you will end up with an amazing cookie every time!  This cookie is made with large chocolate chips (or M&M’s) combined with mini chocolate chips for the perfect amount of chocolate goodness.  Trust me, this recipe is about to become your favorite.
