I am looking for a moist chocolate chip cookie recipe that I can make for my fat husband....His birthday is right around the corner and the barrel man requested cc cookies. Does anyone have a great recipe for me....PLease do not say duncan hines , I really want to make them from somewhat scratch.
Thanks everybody
PS...my husband really is the sexiest man alive...
2 c. all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
3/4 tsp. salt
1 c. butter, room temperature
3/4 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
1/4 c. sour cream
1 pkg. chocolate chips
1 c. chopped nuts
Mix flour with baking soda and salt. Cream butter. Gradually beat in sugars and continue beating until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Blend in vanilla, egg, and sour cream. Gradually add flour mixture beating until smooth. Stir in chips and nuts using teaspoon. Drop on ungreased baking sheet 2 inches apart. Bake at 375 degrees for 12 minutes or until light brown.
(My dad is fussy and she leaves the nuts out for him)
Another weird request from a husband, for his birthday -- thank goodness! I was thinking my husband was the oddest. His birthday cake is always a cookie jar full of oatmeal/raisin cookies. When we were married, he had pumpkin pie for his bachelor's cake.
The recipe for Toll House cookies, right on the back of the package, is a good one. The variation of the recipe with coconut is a moist one.
Let us know what you try, and how it goes over, will ya?

This ones a little different but its good and its easy. Its also a time saver. I mean why spend all that time making lots of cookies when theyre just going to devour the whole batch in one sitting. BTDT. You might want to check out Toll House Pie too. The recipes on the package.
Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 cup sifted flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup melted butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 T hot water
i tsp vanilla
i cup chopped nuts
6 oz semi sweet chocolate pieces
Sift first four together and set aside.
Combine butter and brown sugar.
Beat until blended at medium speed
Add egg water and vanilla and mix well.
Stir in dry ingredients and mix well.
Spread batter in two greased 9 inch glass pie plates.
Sprinkle each with half the nuts and chocolate pieces.
Bake at 350 for 15 to 20 minutes.
Cool in pie plates and cut in wedges..
Makes 16 servings.
Note ,
These make great "Birthday" cookies. Take one write Happy Birthday on it and keep the other for yourself.
Also you can busy them up by adding raisins, marshmallows M&M's etc.
Ok you all I am going to give you my secret tip. Shhhhhh don't tell no one.
I use any of the chocolate cookie recipe but add one small vanilla pudding package (dry) and add extra 1/3 cup of flour and cook it the way the directions says. My family loves these that they are gone in one day. I don't like them to get really brown but semi brown. Good luck and ENJOY!!!
My husband likes moist (soft, right?) cookies too. (Personally, I'm fine w/crunchy.) I've noticed if I put them in a container right away (after letting them cool for just a bit) they stay softer. But when I leave them out to cool longer, they are crunchier and he doesn't care for them as much. I'm not a big cookie maker though, so just my inexperienced 2 cents.
Speaking of husband's requests for birthdays... last year mine requested (I did ask him though) an angel food cake. Goodness. I tried to make one from scratch and it was a total flop. Had to run out to the store to get one. He knows better now... when I ask, he makes it a lot simpler.

I made these and they melded into each other to make one flat pancake! I think they need more flour and perhaps a very long stint in the fridge.

That's because you have to let the dough sit in the fridge for a while. Using melted butter helps mix in the sugar, but if you use melted butter, you gotta put the dough in the fridge so they don't come out sloppy!
Another trick is the leave the dough in the fridge overnight!

You are overcooking them for your husband's taste, and mine. Try taking them out a minute to two minutes earlier. They will appear a little raw in the middle but after you let them stand on the sheet for a minute and then transfer to the cooling rack, they will end up perfect.
I can't stand crunchy chocolate chip cookies either. I hate it when I accidentally take one from a cookie tray (because it looks beautiful and soft ) and then I have to waste the calories on a bad cookie because it would be rude to put it back.

Oops Sorry.
Perhaps my directions werent very clear. Theyre supposed to be one big pancake
My recipe makes two cookies.
Two REALLY big cookies.
Each one fills a nine inch pie plate.
When I serve one to company I cut it in wedges like a pie. If its for myself I just use two hands and pick it up and eat it.
They really are excellent for special occasions like birthdays. Buy one of those squeeze tubes of icing and write away.
