Remember that Seinfeld when everyone starts using a fork and knife to eat their candy bars? I tell you- there is something to that. I am not a huge chocolate chip cookie fan, but something about eating it with a fork like a pie makes it taste delicious. So Seinfeld has a true basis behind their inane story lines.
This cookie is everything a chocolate chip cookie should be and more. You should go make it, while I decide to eat my chocolate covered raisins with a knife and fork.
