Boyd's Chocolate Chip Cookies

My dad is definitely most famous for his chocolate chip cookies. It started with this lady in our ward who made really good cookies and everyone knew her for it. She gave my dad her recipe and he made some changes so it then became his own. I have had numerous people tell me that these are the best cookies they have ever had. I like to think of them as a secret weapon whenever you need to bribe someone because they work every time.
