Big, Flat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

• That's right, big, FLAT, chewy cookies. My hubbs LOVES flat cookies...the flatter the better! Not me, I am a thick, doughy cookie fan. Well, that is, until this recipe. These are 100% flat, and 100% delicious. The flavor is amazing, melt in your mouth-deliciousness. There is a little crisp along the edges, but when combined with the middle, you get a chewy, out-of-this-world, FLAT cookie!
