crispy and chewy chocolate chip cookie

 I am constantly searching for a perfect choc chip cookie 

I found an amazing one 

which i posted about here 

and i still think that is a keeper 

but a girl likes to explore and discover 

and my quest means I must constantly test, tweak and eat 

tough eh?

anyway today I lifted these ladies out and i knew i was on to something special 

crispy on the outside with a slight chew in centre 

very light and utterly more'ish
