I made these cookies for my friend's birthday and they were amazing! I have made many types and variations of chocolate chip cookies but nothing like this. These cookies had peanut butter chips (which I didn't use) and M&Ms which I haven't made in cookies. I modified the recipe because I did not want to find the peanut butter chips and we did not have walnuts. Aside from that, the cookies, while baking, spread out and looked kind of like they were burnt around the edges but they were perfectly chewy and not so moist that it is oily but it wasn't dry. It was just right. I followed the recipe to the tee. They came out amazing and the dough wasn't too bad either! The cookies were really good and they get rave reviews from everyone! I'm so glad I made them. They were just right and hit the spot.
