The Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie

I have been talking about food a lot lately. Maybe it's because I am on summer vacation and I got lots of time on my hands. Or because I like to eat in general.

Chocolate chip cookies are kind of the no-fail dessert for me. Trust me, I had four today already.

No matter where I get my chocolate chip cookies, they are still chocolate chip cookies. Sweet, chocolatey, and satisfying. However, not all chocolate chip cookies are created equal. There is always that secret ingredient that makes every cookie different, yes even the store bought one.

For a while I was making chocolate chip cookies from the recipe on the those familiar looking yellow bags (you got it, it's Nestle!)

So today I decided to try something new. First I tried Bev's Chocolate Chip Cookies from EatingWell. Let's just say chocolate chip cookies should stay "unhealthy". I need the buttery aftertaste.

Then I remember I got a Cook's Illustrated magazine from a garage sale once and the reason I got it because it had The Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe.

And yes, it was p e r f e c t.
So if you would excuse me, I have four cookies and a cup of milk to get to.
