I don't make them often, but I love chocolate chip cookies. But I like them as bars (like brownies) even more. I just scrape all the batter onto parchment paper in a glass baking dish and set them on a rack to cool until firmly set.
Then just cut them up and put them in a lidded container (I have a couple of nice metal ones that actual cookies came in as holiday gifts).
This may annoy some of you, but I have one every 2-3 days... So a batch of 15 lasts a month or so... 😇
And it is time to make ore. I make some from store pouches and some from raw ingredients. The most annoying thing is that the batter is very thick. I actually broke a wooden spoon mixing the stuff once.
This time, I think I will see how well my bread machine is at mixing it on the dough setting. Aside from making good cooked bread (a topic for another post), it mixes pizza and bread dough for baking separately. It sure would save a lot of hard stirring!

They look good.
I always prefer making cookies as bars too! So much easier.
The Cookie Monster could learn a lesson or two from you.
The only thing about using a bread machine on dough setting to mix cookies would be how warm the machine gets when it rests the dough, at least mine does, to let the dough rise. Since it doesn't take that long to mix cookies, maybe stop the machine once the batter is mixed enough? It would be interesting to experiment.
