Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie





I am OFFICIALLY on the hunt for the best chocolate chip cookie recipe.  It is no secret that these are my favorite cookies to make but I have made almost a dozen different recipes and am never fully satisfied.  I am looking for the perfect crispness and not that cake-like cookie.  I don't like that at all. And is the secret butter or crisco; brown sugar or white sugar or both?


 But then I know there is a certain way to make the recipe than mixing everything at once.  What is your method and if you have a recipe you would like to share with EXACT ingredients and directions, please share and I will announce which is the perfect chocolate chip recipe.


You can even leave your comment as "anonymous" if it is a secret family recipe or you are afraid I will ended up thinking they are absolutely horrible.  Just kidding!
