Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
3/4 C. Sugar
3/4 C. Brown Sugar (I like dark brown)
3/4 C. Butter, softened
Cream butter and sugar until very light and fluffy (you want the sugar to start to dissolve while it's creaming so it doesn't melt in the oven)
Mix into creamed mixture:
2 t. Pure Vanilla Extract
2 Eggs
Add dry ingredients and mix until just blending:
2 1/2 or 3 C. Flour (it's okay if the dough is a little moist, you don't want too much flour and cakey cookies)
1 t. Baking Soda
1/2 t. Salt
Add whatever chips you like, scoop out the dough (use a cookie scoop for pretty and easy cookies!), and bake at 350 for about 10 minutes (325 convect, 9 minutes). I like to kind of squish my cookies with a spatula before baking so they come out a little thinner but that's a personal preference.
If you have more dough than you need try scooping the extra out and freezing the balls of dough- then you can just toss them on the pan and bake later.
Good flavor combos:
Chocolate chip and white chocolate chips mixed together
White chocolate chips with Craisins and nuts
Mint chips with melted chocolate or cocoa powder to make a dark chocolate cookie dough
Chocolate chip and peanut butter chips mixed together
