Crash and I have both decided that it's just not worth it to make Toll
House cookies anymore. These are so much better. The cookies are kinda
dense and chewy, yet soft. Not greasy, like Toll House. They don't keep
well, so extras should be frozen until ready to use. I've rarely had them
last long enough for this to be a problem. This one is courtesy of my
mom's sister, Jackie.
