Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie
When I tell you this is the best chocolate chip cookie… EVER! It’s fool proof. Literally, you cannot mess it up. We live in high altitude, and I have always had a difficult time baking here, I decided to pull out my grandmother‘s recipe and give these cookies a try. They have never failed me before, and even at high altitude, they did not fail me!
They come out beautiful they are fluffy with a touch of crispy. You are going to love them!
