Thick and GOOEY Chocolate Chip Cookies!

 Who doesn't love Chocolate Chip Cookies?  Seriously?  I have never met anyone who doesn't think a warm Chocolate Chip Cookie is the most amazing thing on Earth.  There are a million recipes out there, and I myself don't have just ONE recipe I always use.  My kids LOVE this recipe, so I make this one sometimes.  My husband likes a flatter, chewier cookie, so I use a different recipe for those.  Then theirs the recipe my mom always made when I was a kid. . . that's just like going home.  Want something healthier?  Try a recipe that replaces the butter with applesauce.  There's also the Vanilla Pudding Chocolate Chip Cookies. . .that recipe makes a super soft cookie as well.  The possibilities and recipes are endless. 

This recipe is for those days that you want a soft, dense, NOT cake-like cookie, that stays warm and gooey much longer than most other recipes.  I'm sure the cornstarch plays a part, but the melted butter plays an even bigger part!  You don't even need a mixer for this dough!  Just a wooden spoon and a little bit of wrist action! 

I have one word for you:  Delish.  Toss in a glass of milk, and it's a match made in heaven.  I don't even like milk, but with these cookies, it's a must!

 You see this big platter of cookies. . .they lasted a few hours.  Maybe.  Took a lot of self control to not take in more than just a few.  I think Dave had like 7 of them.
