Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate chips. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will result in tough cookies.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will give you chewy cookies with a crispy exterior.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to set.

Magnolia Bakery's chocolate drop cookies are a classic for a reason. They're chewy, chocolatey, and absolutely delicious. By following the tips above, you can make these cookies at home that are just as good as the ones from the bakery. So what are you waiting for? Start baking!
