48 Cookies
- Serves:
- 4-6
ingredients
- 3⁄4 cup granulated sugar
- 3⁄4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cup softened butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 egg
- 2 1⁄4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup coarsly chopped nuts (optional)
directions
- Pre-heat oven to 390 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl mix sugar, butter, vanilla and egg together. Do not over beat the mixture. If using a hand mixer only go for about a minute and a half. Stir in flour, baking soda, and salt. Then add the chocolate chips . Mix until combined. For smaller cookies use a rounded tablespoon to dish out round dough balls. For larger cookies, an ice cream scoop works well. Before you cook your cookies, freeze them first. Doing this will ensure that the flour and butter cook at the same time, which leaves you with plump rounded cookies (the reason most homemade cookies turn out flat and greasy is because the butter cooks out first). Once frozen, on an ungreased cookie pan cook for 10 minutes. Finally, take the cookies out of the oven and place on a cooling rack. Allow your easy chocolate chip cookies to cool and then enjoy!
