URBAN LEGEND CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Urban Legend Chocolate Chip Cookies image

This recipe circulated in an "urban legend" email about 5 years ago. As the legend went, a customer in a fancy restaurant asked for a cookie recipe and was charged $250 on their bill for it at the end of the meal. The legend turned out to be false, but these remain the BEST chocolate chip cookies I have ever tasted, and certainly the best to ever come out of my kitchen! NOTE: Do NOT leave out the oats. Even if you don't necessarily like oats in your cookies, they will not bake right without them. Also make sure that the cookies are SMALL - roll them up into balls that are a bit smaller than a golf ball. They don't bake right if you make them too big. Recipe can be halved.

URBAN LEGEND CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Urban Legend Chocolate Chip Cookies image

You may have heard this story...a woman asks to buy a cookie recipe and is told it will cost 'two-fifty.' She thinks this means $2.50, but then she gets her credit card bill back and finds out it is $250.00. Outraged, she spreads the recipe far and wide to try and get her money's worth. I first heard this story 6 years ago and was given a recipe on a sheet of paper which bore the date '1986.' The supposed originator of the recipe was a well-known cookie company. I have since heard this tale again several times, with the recipe originating from different upscale department stores. True story? Who knows, but it's a darn good cookie. Here's my version.
