Neiman Marcus Chocolate Chip Cookie

The urban legend states that this recipe was sold to a NM shopper for $250.00. She was so shocked that her bill was not $2.50 like she had thought, that she quickly went and circulated this guarded recipe for all to enjoy...just to stick it to the store.

All I know is that these are GOOD! Maybe not $250 good....but close! This recipe makes roughly 112 coookies. So cut it down if you dont want to eat your body weight in cookies!
