TWD-My Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

This week's TWD recipe was chosen by Kait, who blogs over at Kait's Plate. You should be able to find the recipe on her blog.

If not, you can find the recipe HERE, from my post about these cookies over a year ago.
I didn't make them again b/c I didn't really care for them and actually ended up churning the leftover cookie dough that I didn't bake into vanilla ice cream, for homemade CCC dough ice cream.
I am pretty sure I did something wrong when I made these, because my cookies did not look anything like the ones in the book. They were very thin and crispy.

Go and see what the other TWD group members thought about these cookies by checking out the TWD Blogroll!

The photo of the cookies from last year (I think) looks fabulous.

I loved these cookies. I think, I love all chocolate chip cookies but these were one of the best.

I love that photo of all the crispy edges! These weren't my all-time favourite cookies either, but I loved the dough and bet your ice cream was amazing!

TeaLady said...

Not my fav either. But they look pretty.

Great idea - using dough or things other than the intended recipe! :) Sorry this wasn't a favorite of yours - strange how thin cookies aren't popular with a lot of folk. The photo looks spectacular though!

I don't think you did anything wrong - mine were definitely thin & crispy too and it seems like lots of other people had a similar experience. Definitely not a favorite, but I love your idea to use the dough in ice cream!

Mine were flat too! I thought I did something wrong, but the more blogs I read, the more I see cookies like mine. They tasted good, just looked bad. :)

Leslie said...

When I made these, they looked like yours, so I went a different CCC route with mine. I like the idea of using them in ice cream though!

Sorry they weren't your favorite, they look good!

betty geek said...

Mine was thin and crispy too! Funny, wasn't my favorite CCC recipe.

Love your idea of making this into CCC ice cream! Nice!

Your cookies look pretty. Sorry they weren't a hit. I love vanilla and cookie dough ice cream. Yum.

I made those and ended up giving them away. My family really enjoys the "thicker/chewy" kind. I just keep going back to my old go-to recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies and add my own touches. It never fails to deliver.
But I love your blog and pictures!
