This sounds as if it would taste like the very best chocolate chip cookies I ever had, at a place called Cookie Muncher's Paradise. I've even forwarded it to my sister (who is not culinarily challenged); we loved those cookies and were desolate when the place closed.
They were the perfect restorative after a morning school-shopping with a child who was a head taller than her peers, and whose shoe size was off the chart. Actually, after any other trauma . . .
An old man lay dying, the doctors had given him just hours to live. He had decided to die in his own bed at home. As he lay there, drifting in and out, he got a wiff of the home-made cookies his wife always made. He called out but his voice was so hoarse, no one heard. Struggling, he got his feet over the side of the bed. With almost all his strength, he willed himself to stand up. Moving slowly, deliberately, from one hand hold to the next, he followed the smell, the auroma giving him strength to keep going.
At last he reached the kitchen, his strength almost gone.
As he reached out a trembling hand, stretching to reach the counter, a spatula smacked his hand away. "Stop that, these are for the funeral"
These are the best honest I swear. My mum picked this recipie up in Canada over 25 years ago, it's for 'Chipit Cookies' you have to try it to believe it:
Aaaargh, can't find it! I will get back to you on this it is very important!
I was serious, I wrote the start of my post, then spent ten minutes getting more and more frantic as I looked trough the cupboard. I can't find the recipie, but will get it in the next couple of days, then I will post it. They are the best. Especially when you take them, not quite cooked, warm and goey from the oven and munch out in the kitchen. Chef's privelage.
