When my kids come home school to the smell of these cookies baking, or freshly out of the oven it just seems to make the afternoon and homework easier..or maybe I am just on a sugar high from eating the dough..either way:
Here is what I came up with for my fav Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe:
- 2 sticks of Butter (one salted and one unsalted) softened
- ⅔ C Brown Sugar
- ⅔ C Sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 3 C Flour
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 ½ C Milk Chocolate Chips
Cream together the Butter and Sugars until light and fluffy (about 2 mins). Beat in the Vanilla. Add one egg at a time until combined.
In a separate bowl combine the Flour, Baking Soda and Salt. I mix them together with a fork to fluff and see if there are any clumps.
Slowly add the Flour mix to the Butter mix until just combined. Then add the Chocolate Chips.
Make ping pong size balls about 1” apart on baking sheet and lightly push down on the tops to flatten. Bake @ 350* for 12 mins or until light brown on top. Remove to a cooling rack right away.
Enjoy!!!
