Mocha Cinnamon Chocolate Chip Cookies

These chocolate chip cookies are awsome! They smell darn good! Those are commons I've got from my family after they finished tasting. My first batch was gone in a flash.
They are indeed quite good, crispy on the outside, soft and chewy in the inside, and they smell wonderful. I like my cookies nice and fat so I use well chilled butter, it keeps the dough cool and won't spread too much in the oven.
