Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have made the same Toll House Cookies for years, and time after time they end up rather flat.  Good, but flat.  No more.  I've discovered Alton Brown's Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies.  Melt the butter before creaming with the sugar?  You must be joking.  Use bread flower?  No way!  I mean it, no way.  I don't have any bread flour.  I gotta tell you, they were not any harder to make than my old stand-by and they really were much chewier.  These cookies just have a lot more body.  Love 'em.
