Thanks Janet,Susan and Dawn, Dont laugh..While at Krogers I went to the Deli Bakery.I talked to a sweet little grandma of 8. She works part time there. She told me to stop using br. sugar and never use anything but unsalted butter for crisp cookies.She also said try hand mixing the butter.eggs and sugar. Im gonna give this one more try tonite and we will all find out if this works. Its a shame the neighbors doggie cant have chocolate,she would have loved me for life...Candy, Ohio
