Chocolate Chip Cookies (with cornstarch)

If you are anything like me, then you are constantly on the search for the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe. I have been looking for years for a recipe for a chewy, moist, melt in you mouth cookie recipe. While this recipe hasn't stopped my search for the perfect cookie, it has slowed it down quite a bit. These cookies aren't perfect, but boy are they yummy!! The corn starch is really quite amazing. It makes these cookies so moist and chewy while not being too overly sweet.
The batter is delicious as well. Mmmm mm!!


The recipe calls for bittersweet chocolate chips, but I used semi-sweet ones instead. I just couldn't imagine bittersweet chocolate making a yummy cookie.
This recipe makes the most perfect looking cookies ever too!!


I mean look how great these look!!



My Dad is a diabetic and I felt bad making such lovely cookies that he wouldnt be able to enjoy  with me so I decided to try and use this recipe but make them sugar free. So I used the same recipe but I exchanged the Sugar for Splenda and the brown sugar for the Splenda brown Sugar Blend then used some sugar free Hershey's Chocolate Chips. My Dad loved them and they look almost exactly like the sugar filled cookies. Usually when I make him a sugar free version on something, you can definitely tell that it is sugar fee and it usually looks a lot less appetizing, but that is so not the case with these cookies. Just see for yourself below....


See, they look just as yummy with out the sugar.

My overall rating of the recipe is that while they are not as sweet tasting as I would normally like a cookie to be, they are really delicious and are the absolute perfect texture.  I will be making these again for sure!
