cookies

[Old Man]

My wife has tried a few recipes for this country and so far nothing really works, so a few good recipes for chocolate chip cookies would be nice to have. We're from Sweden (20+ years ago) and this is the first time we have tried to make these, so I am looking for soft cookies please, if at all possible.

Do what you want with the chocolate, I like to get a block or two of decent dark/milk and smash it up instead.

Key is not to overbake, they should be goey when you take out of oven .. after cooling they'll firm up but be super chewy.
