Chocolate Chip Cookies

Mmmmmmm!  We <3 chocolate chip cookies! 

 I make 'em just like the Nestle Tollhouse with a few caveats:

***make SURE (double dog SURE) that the butter is SOFT before you start
***increase vanilla to 1 Tbsp instead of 1 tsp

INGREDIENTS

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, SOFTENED

3/4 cup granulated sugar

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

1 Tablespoon vanilla extract

2 large eggs

2 cups (12-oz. pkg.) chocolate chips

PREHEAT oven to 375° F.

COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in chips. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets. 

BAKE for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely. 

PERFECT cookies EVERY single time!  enjoy!
