NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES from Very Best Baking

 

This comes from Nestlé's offical site, Very Best Baking. I made half using 3/4 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1/2 c. chopped toasted pecans, and got 27 using a 1 T./1.5" diameter cookie scoop. I baked the dough cold straight out of the refridgerator on 350 F, not 375 F, for about 9 minutes. They have decent flavor but I've made three or four other chocolate chip cookie recipes that I like better. 

I give these 4 stars. The true original recipe for this has you add the baking soda to hot water, then add it to the dough.

CHEWY BROWNIE COOKIES from Hershey's


This ultra moist cookie comes from Hersheyland. They taste OK but are too moist. They're made with shortening and Dutch process cocoa. The edges get a little crispy but if you let them go too far, the edges burn slightly and taste awful. My 1 T. dough balls baked in 7.5 minutes. I made half the recipe and got 19. I added 1/3 c. mini semi-sweet chocolate chips. The dough is sticky and needs to be refrigerated 45 minutes or so before scooping.

I give these 4 stars.
