When I lived in Hawaii, I worked at a little bakery on the BYU-Hawaii campus (yet another place that I worked!) I LOVED the chocolate chip cookies that we made there. They are so soft, chewy and DELICIOUS!
Here is a recipe I came up with for a small batch… it was like a little taste of the bakery again!
***Use this recipe to make “Skookies”…. YUM!

I WANT TO MAKE THIS COOKIE. WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY 3 1/2 CUBES OF REAL BUTTER. DO YOU MEAN 3 1/2 CUPS OF REAL BUTTER.
You will love these cookies! It is actually 3 1/2 cubes… so about 1 3/4 cups.
THANKYOU VERY MUCH. WE ARE GOING TO MAKE IT TODAY.
These have become my family’s favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe. (I’ve received requests to make these for my childrens’ friends in the lunchroom.) The only alteration I made was to add a bit of instant coffee granules (I always do this when I bake with chocolate as it intensifies the chocolatey taste). Thanks so much for the recipe
I'm trying your recipe tonight. Is the oven temp really 325? Because after 9 minutes the cookies were definitely not done. Should it be 375?
made these, divine.
I cooked them on convection @ 300 for 10 minutes..perfection.
Made these cookies tonight… DELISH! Thanks so much for this blog… I use TONZ of your recipes. And I cooked mine on 325 for 8 minutes and they were no more than PERFECTO! They didn't look exactly like yours but so close… just not as cracky… more smooth
Is cracky a word? HAHA! YUMMO!
These made good dough too
Love dough! Mine turned out a little crispy on the outside edge and bottom with the middle gooey. I probably have bad cookie sheets. What is your suggestion on cookie sheets? Where do you get them… Light, Dark, Specialty etc? THX!!! Oh, and they are still delicious! Maybe once they sit for a bit (like tomorrow) they will be divine!
Sam’s Club sells a set of 1 half-sheets for a very reasonable price. They have edges so you can actually bake cookie bars/sheet brownies in them too. They rock! They are a light aluminum and you can find them with other kitchen supplies.
Your problem, though, can be solved by refrigerating the dough for 20-30 min (or as long as you want – it just increases the cooking time a bit, but they turn out great!)
Hey… I too worked in the BYU Hawaii Bakery. Oh… how i love that little place. And the chocolate chip cookies
I found this recipe around 2 years ago, I made it for the first time and fell in love – and have been using it ever since! Chocolate chip cookies are my favorite dessert- and my hubby’s, too (well, the dough). I usually bake at 350 for 10 minutes, but every oven is different! But thank you for posting this recipe! It is already a family favorite, and the cookie my kids will grow up loving!!!
ps – I freeze the cookies and eat them as a snack – so I always have my favorite dessert on hand! Sounds weird, but you should try it. It only takes a few minutes for it to defrost.. and I actually prefer them frozen now instead of “fresh-baked”. I think it helps you savor every bite!
