Ingredients:<\/b><\/p>\n
2 sticks of butter (just slightly softened)<\/span><\/span> \n \n3\/4 cup sugar<\/span><\/span> \n \n3\/4 cup brown sugar\u00a0<\/span><\/span> \n \n2 eggs<\/span><\/span> \n \n1.5 ts vanilla\u00a0<\/span><\/span> \n \n2.5 cups flour<\/span><\/span> \n \n1 ts. baking soda (make sure your baking soda is new! Not older than 30 days.)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n1 ts salt- (Plus extra for sprinkling on top of the dough if desired)<\/span><\/span> \n \n1 bag of chocolate chips (appx. 2 cups) – I LOVE the morsels that are half chocolate\/half white\u00a0<\/span><\/span>chocolate. People always seem to love them too!<\/span> \n \n<\/span>Directions<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Preheat oven to 375.<\/span> \n \nCream butter and sugars together with a paddle attachment. Add in eggs, one at a time\u00a0<\/span><\/span> \nmaking sure to mix well after each addition. Add in vanilla.\u00a0<\/span><\/span> \n \n<\/span><\/span> \n<\/span><\/span>In a separate bowl, sift together dry ingredients. OR, mix ingredients with a whisk, which is what I\u00a0<\/span><\/span> \nusually do now. Who has the patience to sift!?<\/span><\/span> \n \nAdd dry ingredients to the wet ingredients \u00a0in small batches- about 1\/2 cup at a time.<\/span><\/span> \nThen, mix in chocolate chips. Refrigerate dough for an hour. You don’t HAVE to do this step,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>but I think it makes a bit of a difference.\u00a0<\/span> \n \nThen, spoon dough into normal sized mounds onto cookie sheet (sprinkle with salt if desired) and bake for appx. 8\u00a0<\/span><\/span>minutes.\u00a0<\/span> \n \n<\/span><\/span> <\/p>\n \n \n<\/span><\/span>Notes:<\/b><\/span><\/span> \n \nHere’s the tricky part. If you have a regular cookie sheet, they bake for appx. 8 minutes, but\u00a0<\/span><\/span> \nif you only have one of those flat, silver cookie sheets, then you’ll need to add a few mins. I\u00a0<\/span><\/span> \npersonally think they turn out better on regular cookie sheets.\u00a0<\/span>Take the cookies out when they are just browned on the edges and transfer to paper towels\u00a0<\/span><\/span>on your counter. They won’t seem all the way done yet, but will firm up once cooled and then\u00a0<\/span>will be\u00a0<\/span><\/span>crispy on the outside and soft in the <\/span><\/span>middle! And they are TO DIE for when cold.<\/span>\u00a0I\u00a0<\/span>keep mine\u00a0<\/span>in the freezer.\u00a0<\/span> \n \n<\/span> <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
