Maybe you need to make a huge batch of cookies for a potluck or a bake sale or a birthday party. Or maybe you want to bake a couple of dozen today and freeze the rest to bake on an as-need basis. Perhaps you’re making a tiered cookie cake a need a lot of dough. Who knows?!? All I know is that I can think of about a hundred reasons why a person might need a recipe that makes a gazillion chocolate chip cookies in one batch.

A friend gave me this recipe a couple of weeks ago and told me that it’s her Aunt’s famous recipe for chocolate chip cookies. I tweaked it ever so slightly, and as of right now– this is my absolute favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe.

Golden edges, chewy centers, and just the right amount of chocolate chips (the right amount = A LOT, in case you were wondering).
