Use butter at room temperature because it mixes well with sugar, giving cookies a smooth texture. Chill the dough thirty minutes before baking to prevent spreading and keep a thick, chewy texture. Try different chocolate chips, like dark or white chocolate, for a unique taste. Add chopped pecans or walnuts if you want a nutty crunch to complement the chocolate sweetness. Eat these cookies fresh from the oven, but they can be stored in a container for a week or frozen longer.
