The BEST chocolate chip cookie recipe I've ever tasted is finally here! At least, it's the best I've ever tasted that I made! Ha ha! I have already made them twice in the last week. They are AMAZING straight from the oven, but they do tend to get a little dry and hard. The first time I made them, I had 66 cookies. The second time I didn't have as many. But I only baked about 18 cookies and froze the rest of the dough in dough balls. They do soften up well in the microwave for about 10 seconds, though. The recipe sounds like a lot of dough, but it's not actually very hard to make. I just let my mixer go for several minutes so the butter and eggs get really whipped and light.
Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 lb butter (4 sticks)--softened to room temp
2 C brown sugar
1/2 C sugar
*Cream first 3 ingredients together. Add:
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla extract
In a separate bowl, mix:
5 1/2 C flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
*Add to cream mixture a little at a time. Add 1 1/2 bags (3 cups) milk chocolate chip cookies. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes on cookie stone. Enjoy! Makes 5-6 dozen cookies.
Now, a few of my notes: I used semi-sweet chocolate chips and thought they tasted just fine. And I don't know what a cookie stone is....hope I'm not showing too much of my ignorance! I just used a cookie sheet, but I had to increase the baking time to about 15 to 20 minutes. I don't actually mix my baking soda and flour together first. I measure my flour in a separate bowl just so I don't lost count. And I think 3 cups of chocolate chips is too much. I only used one bag (2 cups) the second time I made them. But, to each his own....!
I'm pretty sure Jacob has eaten all the cookies I made yesterday or I would go have some right now! I really hope this makes sense. I'm very tired right now and haven't felt well today....good luck and enjoy!!!!

Holy Cow! They better be good if they use a whole pound of butter! So sorry you weren't feeling well! Too bad Jacob ate all the cookies! You could eat one to cheer you up!
ReplyDeleteOoh, these sound so yummy!! I wish I could make some tomorrow but I think I don't have enough brown sugar. Blast! Oh well. We have tons of junk food around here anyway. I put Josh in charge of General Conference treats which means now we have more Twinkies, donuts and jelly beans than we know what to do with. Guess I wouldn't add chocolate chip cookies to that even if I did have brown sugar. Boo.
