These chewy chocolate chip cookies are thick, soft and jam packed with chocolate chips! They are big and delicious and super simple to make!
This recipe comes courtesy of my sister in law who, unlike me, is an excellent baker! She said this recipe totally replaced her go-to chocolate chip cookie recipe, and after one bite of this deliciousness, I can totally see why!!!
I’ll be honest, I don’t do well with recipes that require precise measurements, so a lot of baking attempts end in messy failures for me. But these cookies? I’ve never messed them up. Never. Which means if I can make them, you can too!
Did I mention these cookies are also huge? Like, the size of your hand. (Do I have your attention yet?)
If you, or anyone you know, loves chewy chocolate chip cookies made in under 30 minutes, then this recipe is a must make!

Im not much of a blogger. I just read a few blogs by friends of mine. I came across your blog on Saturday when I looked something up for mod podge and found the modpodgerocks blog. I started poking around (loving the projects on your site!) and came across this cookie recipe. It looked so good from the pictures I just had to try it. I had a party to go to that night and figured I would take them with me. The cookies were gone before I could turn around!! Everyone loved them and is asking for the recipe now. Thanks so much for sharing! They were delish and are being passed on! Kristen
I'll be trying these 🙂
TFS!
Are you sure the recipe is correct? I followed it exactly, which is something I don’t always do, and the dough is rather runny. It is not at all the consistency pictured or that I expected a chocolate chip cookie dough to look like. I double checked all my measurements too. Just wondering where I went wrong.
Hmmm….. I just double checked everything and the recipe is written correctly. I’m sorry these didn’t work out for you – I wonder what could be the problem?!? That is very frustrating!!!
