Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies

Thanks to my little sis Haley, I have found a foolproof recipe for delicious chocolate chip cookies. Just don't add too much flour, and really do only cook them for 9 minutes. You can also get creative by adding different kinds of chocolate chips. I like mixing milk and white chocolate chips or adding toffee.

Enjoy!

Cream together:

• 2 cubes of melted (not just softened) butter
• 2 eggs (room temp.)
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar

Add:

• 1 tsp salt
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp (or more) vanilla
• 3 - 3.5 cups flour
• 1 bag chocolate chips

Bake at 350 degrees for 9 minutes on the middle rack - one tray at a time.

*Bake at 325 degrees if using the convection bake setting.

My allergies might stop me from having a little puppy, but at least these guys make regular appearances in my backyard to keep me company!
