Best ever chocolate chip cookies

I have tried many a chocolate chip cookie recipe and I must say, this one is at the top of my list.  They bake beautifully in the oven and are fluffy and delicious after they are done. I think this is a great dessert to make around the Thanksgiving holidays because you can bake them, sit them out for a nice snack and the batch makes a whole lot.  I will be making them for sure.. :)
