Thank you, thank you, thank you!! My grandmother would host Thanksgiving at her Appleton, WI house for about 50 of us. We came from the East coast, Chicago area, Florida, Colorado and Montana to be with our cousins for a couple of days a year. Grandma would make dozens of chocolate chip cookies for us and I have never been able to replicate the cookies with the current "toll house" recipe. I always wondered what I was doing wrong!!! Now I know.... just a little water to dissolve the baking soda. I used a #50 scoop - probably 1 T. Baked for 7 min. top and bottom rack and voila - Grandma Rose's Thanksgiving Chocolate Chip cookies. Sweet memories, for sure!! I already emailed the recipe to the cousins....... Thank you again for publishing this recipe!
Ah, so happy to hear you've been reunited with your grandma's recipe, Megan. I love it when we're able to help make this happen. Enjoy! PJH
