  • Use high-quality chocolate chips. The better the chocolate, the better the cookies will taste.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature and for the right amount of time. The cookies should be golden brown around the edges and slightly soft in the center.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying them. This will help them to set and develop their full flavor.
