I really love this recipe it's very easy to make. Like people said, adding white chocolate will be way better with flavors.

so melting, i really liked it!

Really good recipe. Easy but tastes great. We added white chocolate chips which was really yum! PS: The cookies spread quite a lot when cooking, so make sure to give them plenty of space on the oven tray :)

Amazing

I haven't tried this recipe but the ingredients are exactly the same as the Chelsea Sugar recipe called "Chocolate Chip Biscuits"

this recipe was good for my sisters 24th breakfast

These were really good, nice and chewy!

Just turned into a mush do not try!!

SOOO YUMMY!!!! :)

Yummy

I am 13 years old and a master baker, this is an easy recipe to bake that tastes good and is easy to customize.

It is so good to eat.

This recipe is soooo easy, fun and delicious! When I am looking for a recipe I go looking straight into Chelsea sugar recipes! I love it so much, I even get a monthly email :) really love it and recommend it!

This recipe was easy and quick. The cookies tasted really good:)

Anyone who said this recipe turned out trash is SO wrong. Best choc chip cookies ever!!!!

Seriously? There were ingredients that were not even in the method and when I added everything together nothing worked.

Wow. These cookies are possibly the BEST cookies I've EVER tasted. I'm sorry to say this, but I am a yr 7 myself and I don't agree with the people who say it's too sweet. It's not for me!!! :) I say they are DELICIOUS.

Sweet, I loved it.

i like it

This cookies are so easy but so yum

I am 12 and I made them with no help and they were perfect!!!
Highly recommend this for anyone

Amazing so easy and delicious only thing I recommend not to do is put 1/2 cup of caster sugar I just put 1/2 cup of brown sugar because for me it tastes to sweet with both for me. By the way I'm 11 and as a kid sugars great for me so it's saying something for me saying it's to sweet.

I am a kid and it was very easy to make! I highly recommend them☺️

Wow these were easy to make and turned out really well-my kids loved them! :)

Whoop whoop

the chocolate chip cookies turned out really well but i did alter the recipe a bit. If you use this recipe, i recommend that you use one whole cup of chocolate chips instead of half a cup.

I substituted brown sugar for peanut butter - and it was soooo good!

Just made these, absolutly amazing! so easy to make. DELICIOUS

So quick & easy and the cookies are delish!! My new fave choc chip recipe. The dough is also too hard to resist so let's just say some of the batch didn't quite make it to the oven...

Yummy, and so easy to make

this recipe was great! i used chocolate buttons for more chocolate-ness.!! lol

i love maken them i manaly cook them every day

Fantastic texture and taste!

just made these crumbled to bits delicious nice taste recommend these make sure you mix it properly

Taste a little too eggy for me. I prefer cookies with out the egg. Edmunds with the condensed milk will always be my favourite I think.

My husband thought this was my best batch of Chocolate Chip Cookies

Delicious with amazing texture.

Fantastic, go-to recipe! I put my cookies in for 16 minutes though, perfect!

Yummy recipe, had to bake my cookies for a bit longer but really easy to make and nice outcome!

Super easy and so yummy!

Really quick and easy, yummy too :-)
