I do not make this claim lightly - this is the best chocolate chip cookie. It's not a thick chunky one, but a thin and gooey centred one. The edges are crisp and crinkled, with a fudgey centre. You will need to ensure you freeze this dough for a minimum of 12 hours, or else they will spread too much on the tray. 11-12 minutes is the ideal baking time, don't overbake them as they will lose their gooey-ness. Enjoy!
