No-Brown-Sugar-Needed Chocolate Chip Cookies

I was intent on baking Chocolate Chip Cookies one recent morning, only to discover that I was out of brown sugar!  I was bummed, because I know brown sugar helps to make cookies soft and chewy (just the way I like them).  I forged ahead, however, and found a No-Brown-Sugar Needed Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe, and it turned out fantastic!

Yes, it was on the crispier side, but it was still really yummy.
