Ok thebakingchocolatess....here goes....you're my first rating on any recipe for anyone, anything, anywhere! You're my first because you earned it! If you had 50 stars to offer, I'd rate this recipe that! I'm an older lady so recipes in general, online don't work at all!!! Very few! I know cuz I've tried quite a few! And even most that do work out aren't worth a letter to chef but this recipe is exactly what you say it is!!!! Awesome job!!!!!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

12-14 cookies if you are using the large cookie scoop or 1/4 cup. More if you make smaller and time reduced. Hope you Enjoy!!
