My Nana used to make these all the time. Now my Mom makes them. It's that tsp of water and the baking soda! I have so many wonderful childhood memories of waiting for my Nana to come up the long driveway in MA when she and my Gramps would drive for NYC to come visit us with her tins of chocolate chip cookies, oatmeal raisin and tin foil wrapped bricks of lemon squares and brownies. I still have the tin she used to put her chocolate chip cookies in. I think it might be time to teach my boys the "secret family recipe." I remember too that episode of Friends when Monica begs for Phoebe's secret family recipe and it's the Toll House Recipe! I know that episode, too! Yes, this is also one of the first cookie recipes I knew when I was little. Thank you for sharing! Kim@KAF
