Grandma Pat's Chocolate Chip Cookies


Note: Grandma Pat always brings the boys their own individual tin of these cookies. She knows that they love them so she make them their own tin so that they won't "fight" over who ate the last one. They love these more than Toll House. It is probably because it is made by Grandma!
