This recipe for Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies was given to me many years ago by a student’s mom. They are not reduced-calorie, gluten-free, nor do they use egg or sugar substitutes. These cookies are the real deal all the way and the best I have ever had or made – plus the recipe is simple! So , when you feel like a splurge or want to make a home-baked gift, try these out!
