Neiman Marcus Cookie RECIPE Isn’t A Myth.
The recipe is real, but the story behind it isn’t. You must have heard the story about the lady who paid $250 for the Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe from Neiman Marcus?! When I heard about it, the amount was $2,500 — You know how stories get exaggerated. Either way, Snopes reports it to be false. The full interesting story is linked here.

Aside from that, an old friend recently reminded me how “freaking good” they are. I used to make the recipe a lot and do think they’re possibly the Best Chocolate Chip Cookies in the world — The blended Oatmeal and grated Chocolate certainly contribute to it. I usually add Walnuts, Pecans or Macadamia Nuts. The recipe is linked above and below on an album page I created over ten years ago. It’s not fancy but includes four bonus recipes if interested.
The actual recipe they serve is $2 Million Dollars, but this one is better. 🙂
IS THIS ACTUALLY THE “REAL RECIPE” THEY SERVE? DID YOU PHONE NEIMAN AND CONFIRM YOURSELF?
