This is one of the recipes that my aunt Peggy is world famous for. Mine did not turn out like hers did; I think it's because she lets her dough refrigerate. Hers are larger and fluffier and denser. Mine ended up being a little crispy on the bottom, which is fine too. They are yummy, though, even without refrigerated dough! I put in way more chocolate chips than it calls for. Store-bought frosting is both efficient and delicious. The recipe yields 3 dozen cookies. Make these
