Chocolate chip cookies

I'll be the first to tell you that I'm pretty picky about my chocolate chip cookies.  You see, there can't be too many chocolate chips, but it's kinda lame if there's only one in the cookie too.  My ideal cookie should never be crisp or crunchy, but soft....just like it came out of the oven.  A couple years ago a co-worker brought in these little gems that turned out to be, in my opinion, the best chocolate chip recipe I've laid my eyes on to date.  Give them a try.  People will be eating out of your hands.  Literally.  So be careful with this recipe.
