The look:Let’s get this straight right off the batthis cookie is absolutely massive.
It measured about five inches in diameter and was about one inch thick.
It also weighed in at 165 grams on my at-home scale.

Size aside, the cookie itself was delightfully golden brown and super soft in the middle.
Costco, apparently, does not skimp at all when it comes the chocolate in a chocolate chip cookie.
All of that melty, not-too-sweet chocolate was enveloped in a sweet buttery dough with hints of vanilla.

The whole thing is very, very rich and makes for quite the formidable dessert.
The combination of textures in this monster of a cookie was also pretty spectacular.
The golden brown edges were crispy on the outside and slightly chewy on the inside.
