Chocolate Chip Cookies II

This morning after my muscle class at the gym we got to talking about cookies. Isn't that a great topic after working out? But I don't think we're the only ones who like cookies! Anyway, one of the girls was saying that she likes cookies that don't spread out that are kind of thick. So she got me thinking about chocolate chip cookies, which if you haven't noticed, my have to be my families favorite cookies! So, anyway, I found this cookie recipe in a cookbook and thought I'd try it because it said they were softer and chewier than most cookies. It's a little different because it has a teaspoon of water in them. They are really yummy, soft, chewy and loaded with chocolate chips.
