Once again Chef outdoes himself. These are simply the best Chocolate Chunk Cookies ever. Tender, puffy, and fudgy. Santini commemorates this recipe to the nights his siblings and him would be dropped off for sleepover nights at grandma's. Served, you will find one and a half cookies, because one is just simply not enough.
