Notes: Here’s the first recipe I ever made for the Top Secret Recipes
books, inspired by that now-famous chain-letter fable. It’s my version of
the delicious Mrs. Fields cookies that are crispy around the edge and chewy
in the middle. Be careful not to cook these too long. I know it becomes
tempting to keep cooking these because they don’t seem to be done after 10
minutes, but they will continue to cook for awhile after you take them out
of the oven, and when cool, will be nice and chewy. Mmm…got milk? C:
