Cuisine: Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever!
Serves: 5 dozen
Ingredients
1 ½ Cups White Sugar
2 Cups Brown Sugar
1 lb. Butter (four sticks)
3 Eggs
2 Tablespoons Vanilla
6 Cups Flour (see notes below)
1 ¼ Tablespoons Salt
1 ¼ Tablespoons Baking Soda
2 12 oz. pkg. Chocolate Chips
Optional: Chopped walnuts
Instructions
Mix together the white and brown sugars
Add the butter and beat until light and fluffy (I've never understood what recipes mean when they say "light and fluffy" because beating together butter and sugar does not result in something fluffy)
Blend in the eggs and vanilla.
Mix together the flour, salt, and baking soda
Add to the butter/sugar mixture
Mix well but do not overbeat
Add the chocolate chips and nuts
Form into balls about the size of a large walnut
Place on a un-greased cookie sheet
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes
