Cookies can be made more chewy by: 1) Baking at a lower temperature further away from the heating element 2) Including ingredients such as brown sugar, butter, coconut, and molasses 3) Not making the cookies too thin, which tends to crisp them up 4) Baking the cookies on a silicon cookie sheet, rather than a metal pan.
Take them out of the oven before they are fully cooked (3-4 minutes ahead of time) and allow them to continue cooking outside the oven on the hot pan for the remainder of the time. Then take them off the pan right away. Also when you store them you can cover your cookies with bread to keep them soft.

I just made a mistake and used half the amount of butter and my cookies turned out very chewy. So that's not the answer you are looking for. :) See the related link for a good article on how to tweak your cookies. Things that can reduce the chewiness of cookies/bisuits are: * the type of flour used:use a low gluten flour (low grade/ cake, not bread type flours)for less chewy cookies * beat the butter with the sugar until pale and creamy: do not use melted butter that has not been beaten * Do not over mix the batter once the flour is added * reduce the sugar content slightly * for a crisper cookie/biscuit, a higher sugar and flour content, low fat content is necessary, but make sure they are well cooked or they may be chewy. * add egg to the mixture or increase the number of eggs.
