How many chocolate chip recipes are there in the world? I have no idea. Julie shared a recipe recently for her best chocolate chip cookies. You and I should try them!
The best ones I had ever tried were from The Cookie Place in Rexburg, Idaho. Seriously. Four big cookies in a box for $12, but so dang worth it!
Then one day I was making chocolate chip cookies with Thrive’s Classic Cookie Dough Mix and my husband said add pecans. So I did. And then he asked “What’s Thrive Macaroon Cookie Mix?” And I said that it was a little piece of coconut heaven, so we added that as well.
The results were simply life changing. I get hassled if I even try to bake any other type of cookie at my house. This one has just set the “bar” too high–oh, do you think I should make cookie bars the next time with this same recipe? Perhaps I will.
I’m just going to stop right here. Get out there and bake these cookies. Then you will know.

Ingredients
- 3 1/3 cups Thrive Classic Cookie Dough mix
- 2 sticks of butter (1 cup), softened

- 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

- 3 T. water
Directions
- Step 1
- Preheat oven on convection bake to 325 degrees F., or regular bake at 350 degrees.

- Place the butter in a stand mixer and mix until creamy.
- Step 3
- Add in the cookie mixes, semisweet chocolate chips, pecans, and water. Mix until well combined.

- Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper and drop cookie dough on each. I used a medium cookie scoop and got about 13 cookies on each sheet.
