Chocolate Chip Cookies

I am the designated cookie maker in my family, well at least for the chocolate chip ones! I figured I would post my recipe for the ones I make that seem to be such a big hit. I just sent Jason a second batch of them because the first ones all got eaten by the guys in his unit! Oh, and this is the recipe for a double batch...they get gone so fast, I always have to make double:)Chocolate Chip Cookies

3 sticks of butter

2 cups firmly packed brown sugar

1/2 cup sugar

2 eggs

3 tsp. vanilla

4 cups flour, unsifted

2 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. salt

12 oz. bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars. Beat in egg and vanilla. Stir in remaining ingredients until well mixed. Roll teaspoon sized scoops into balls and space 2 inches apart onto lightly greased cookie sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes until just starting to turn golden. I always take them out a tad early, when they are still pretty gooey. Once they cool, they stay super chewy! Cool on wire racks.

Hope you enjoy!
