Darn Good Chocolate Chip Cookies

I've tried many chocolate chip cookie recipes and I have found that my preference is for a cookie that is crispy around the edges, is chewy in the center, and is not too flat. This recipe fills the bill. I think that the addition of lemon juice has something to do with this. Don't worry, you won't taste the lemon. I've also specified Hershey's chocolate chips instead of Nestle's chocolate morsels. You can use the Nestle's if you have them, but try to give the Hershey's chips a try. I really like their flavor better.
