Chocolate Chip Cookies (Not your Momma's Recipe)

The sweets are hitting the town and this girl is making all kinds of cookies for the holidays.  My family always made an abundance of cookies during the holiday season and this year I have gone absolutely crazy making them.  Here is a very simple, good recipe for chocolate chip cookies. My Mom always insiteted we make these babies.  Enjoy everyone.

Ingredients

1 cup (2 sticks)unsalted Butter at room temperature
3/4 cup granulated white sugar
3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 large Eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups semisweet

Making Great Cookies
  • First turn on your oven to 375 degrees
  • Grab a mixing bowl
  • Add your butter and sugar

  • Mix these together well until fluffy
  • Scrape the sides so that you incorporate all the flavors together
  • Add your vanilla 
  • Add your eggs one at a time and allow this to mix well together for about 2 minutes

  • Once this has mixed well
  • Add your dry ingredients slowly
  • Once you have added your flour mixture add your chocolate chips and mix on low speed for 1 minute

  • Take the mixing bowl and place it on the counter
  • Put your dough in the fridge for an hour to allow it to form
  • Grab to cookie sheets and start adding your dough to them in Tablespoon forms
  • Bake these beauties in the oven for 10-12
  • When they are brown around the edges and soft in the middle they are done
  • When you take them out place them on a cooling racks 
YUM

Enjoy these beauties with a nice glass of my homemade eggnog, coffee, tea or a big glass of milk.
