If you like thicker, more cake-like cookies, give these a try. You will enjoy them as much as we do. These thick chocolate chip cookies use flour and cornstarch, which help the cookies puff up instead of spread out. See how TALL these cookies are?? Once you made the dough, you need to practice some self-restraint and put it in the fridge overnight.
Serve them with milk, tea, or just as a snack. To keep them fresh, place in an airtight container and close the lid. These babies do not go into the refrigerator, but stay on the countertop.
