Chocolate Chip Cookies

Everyone has a recipe for chocolate chip cookies whether it was passed down from their Grandma or they got it from the church cookbook. I have to say this recipe is the best I have ever had, I'm not just saying this because it came from my Dad...it really is true. You will have to try them yourself. This makes a huge batch of cookies, 5 dozen huge. Bake half and put the rest of the dough in the freezer, bake them all and share, or just bake them and eat them all!


What you will need:

5 cups flour
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp salt
2 cups butter (that is correct 2 CUPS of butter....this is why they are so good)!
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tsp vanilla
4 eggs
2 packages of semi-sweet chocolate chips

Cream butter and sugar together in a mixer, add eggs one at a time and blend until smooth, then add the vanilla.



 In a separate bowl mix all the dry ingredients together; the flour, baking soda, and salt. I always add the chocolate chips into the dry ingredients because it keeps the chips from settling to the bottom of the cookie.


Now that you have both dry and wet ingredients, mix the dry, add 1/3 of the dry mixture into the wet and combine them, continue to do so until everything is mixed well. 


I drop spoon fulls of the batter on a cookie sheet  and bake them in a 375 degree oven for about 20 minutes until golden brown.


 ENJOY
