Quadruple Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Of all the recipes in my repertoire, I think my Quadruple Chocolate Chunk Cookies have the best shot at winning a cookie contest. When your cookies feature Oreos, candy bars and all the other goodies that go into a sweet treat, you’re nearly guaranteed to turn out a winner.
