7.Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cookies are cracked, still soft. Do not over bake.
8.Take baking sheets out of the oven and let cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Transfer to the wire rack and let cool completely.
* Equivalently you can use about 2 ounces or 60 grams semisweet or dark chocolate, chopped into small pieces.
