    I made these last night but waited until I ate one today to see if they were still soft and yes they were! They taste great too which is the most important. 375 almost burnt my first batch so I switched to 350 for 9 min and they came out great (no one is to blame lol) mine came out kinda flat but I didn't care because they were still so delicious. Thanks for the recipe!

    Blue Ridge Mountains Chocolate Chip Cookies, These cookies have been served for over 75 years in the quiet village of Orkney Springs, VA We have stayed in this retreat center called Shrine Mont where people come for rest, devotion, and fellowship A couple of things set these cookies apart: butter and shortening ensure a thick cookie, soft in the middle, with a touch of almond extract , I made these last night but waited until I ate one today to see if they were still soft and yes they were! They taste great too which is the most important 375 almost burnt my first batch so I switched to 350 for 9 min and they came out great (no one is to blame lol) mine came out kinda flat but I didn’t care because they were still so delicious Thanks for the recipe!, Roxygirl, I can’t thank you enough for sharing an awesome, excellent, delicious, and PERFECT chocolate chip cookie recipe They came out so pretty and picture perrfect And these taste and texture were perfect too Not too sweet not salty they were chewy inside and a little crisp outside I submitted my photo, I think it’s number 2 A word of advice for anybody who is having problems with this recipe: baking on dark cookie sheets such as Wilton’s, makes a HUGE difference They bake more evenly I love this recipe, and I don’t need to look any further! THANKS AGAIN Roxygirl!!!!
