1. MELT the butter in the recipes, don't beat it--something about the way that melted butter binds with flour helps keep cookies chewy.
2. Add an extra egg yolk to the recipe.
3. And of course, make sure to under bake the cookies (and remember that they will bake an extra few minutes on the sheet after you take them from the oven, so they can look pretty underdone when you take them out).
Good luck!!

The best chocolate chip cookie ...the good old Nestle Toll House recipe. The trick is......don't over cook. Cut cooking time by a minute or two. This is how I make mine and they stay soft!!! Happy baking!
