The Story Behind This Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

When we vacationed in Hawaii this past summer, there was a local grocery store called Foodland that carried some fantastic store made cookies. And, in my opinion, they were the best Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe around. We kept buying them and devouring them. So, now that we are home, I thought I would try and replicate this gem of a cookie.

This is the best chocolate chip cookie recipe. You'll love how crispy it is on the edges and how chewy it is on the inside. All wrapped up in a sugary butter topping. #cookierecipe #chocolatechipcookie #baking #cookie #chocolate
