Notes
We use milk chocolate chips, but you can use semi sweet as well.Add 1 to 2 Tablespoons of water if the mixture seems dry.Melted butter should be cooled, not hot or it will scramble the eggs.When making this recipe, I sometimes, add all the dry ingredients separate from all the wet and then combine them together. And sometimes when in a hurry, I don't. If you mix the wet ingredients together first, it is easier to incorporate and no lumps.
