A comment like this has popped up a few times in this section so I thought it might be time to address it: AllRecipes.com published this recipe in 2001. ATK ran an episode with a recipe similar (but not terribly; it uses less flour, more butter, more sugar and fewer chocolate chips) to this in early 2010. (If I have the date wrong on this, please let me know.) CI has a version that's a bit closer, but with more flour, no melted butter and a wide range of chips. I published this article in early 2009. I don't think anyone "stole" anything, as there a thousands of chocolate chip cookie recipes out there, no doubt most of them overlap in ways as there are only so many proportions in which one can combine butter/flour/sugar/eggs/chocolate and still yield a chocolate chip cookie that looks and tastes like one. Neither All Recipes, CI or SK invented the chocolate chip cookie; all we do is publish variants and approaches, in our own voices, that we think you will like the most.

this recipe is actually stolen from America’s Test Kitchen.

These are the BEST chocolate chip cookies I’ve ever made. My fiance loved them so much he requested a second batch!!!

These are really good! I haven’t made CC cookies in ages but your surprise me button took me here and I went with it because I didn’t need to drag out the mixer! Glad I did! I did brown the butter since it had to be melted anyway and I only used 1 cup of chips because I like that toffee flavored cookie as much as the chocolate. Allrecipes! I’ve used allrecipes quite a few times as a source for recipes. I think one needs to have some cooking experience to sort the good from the bad or poorly written recipes, or at least know enough to compare what you find to a similar one from a trusted site. I read their daily recipes every morning to get ideas. I’m glad you haven’t (or at least hadn’t in 2009) ruled them out as a recipe source. The gazillions of reviews are purely reviews, which is helpful. I like you better, though :)

So happy I came across this PERFECT recipe. I love trying new recipes & getting reviews from my teens b/c 2 are SO picky & of those 2, one doesn’t like chocolate. I know its a great recipe when he loves them! Even my husband, whom doesn’t eat sweets kept eating them. I made 2 pans & rolled the rest into a log to freeze. When we wanted a snack or when my daughter was having Quinceanera practice, Id slice and bake. I get requests for more when they come over. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!

I made these this weekend for my 16 yr old son and two of his friends. I used a 1/4 cup measuring cup, as you stated, and they were THRILLED with the large cookies! They were so yummy! Thanks for another winning recipe.

This is by far the best chocolate chip cookie recipe out there! I did add a handful of flaked coconut because I prefer the added texture. Other than that, I did not deviate from this recipe. I will always use this recipe from now on! Thank you!
