It's been a long quest...countless recipes, dozens of cookies baked, but alas, I finally have a cookie that is as soft and chewy and delicious as Entenmann's- I kid you not, these cookies are just that good.So good in fact that they have made me a sinner, and have taken away any and all shred of humility I once had. I've broken part of my Lenten for these.
They only lasted a day, if that, but they stayed just as soft as the moment they came out of the oven. Even the chocolate chips stayed soft. These will literally melt in your mouth.

Tammy, you need to give up cookie dough for Lent, not cookies!!! See, I can eat your wonderful baked goods...but the hardest part for me, it not sampling the batter. I'm going to have to try your recipe...I don't think I've ever baked a chocolate chip cookie with oil!

I am a sucker for Entenmanns, but they are loaded with junk. Glad to have this recipe as a replacement!

I don't know if I could have had any self control around these either! Every good cookie MUST be soft and chewy - these exceed even my "cookie rules!" 😉 Thanks for helping us still that are still searching to end our quest!

I'm a huge huge fan of chocolate chips cookies! I love pretty much every recipe I test! I'm sure yours would please us here:)

Tammy, There ought to be a law that requires all chocolate chip cookies to be soft and chewy. I like my oatmeal raisin and my coconut cookies thin and crisp...but not chocolate chip! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

Tammy, Tammy, I want one right this minute! (maybe two, please) They look incredible! There is nothing like a soft, gooey, chewy, chocolate chip cookie! You cracked the code, yes!!. I have to try this one. I love those cookies that Entenmann's sell. I think that God will forgive you, just this once for breaking your Lenten fast. Thanks for sharing this recipe, I always wondered how to get them so soft, but chewy. Great job! Blessing to you..Dottie 🙂
