Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients:
1 ½ C. Butter at room temperature (3 sticks)
1 ¼ C. Granulated Sugar
1 ¼ C. Brown Sugar
1 Tblsp. Vanilla
2 Large Eggs
4 C. All-Purpose Flour
2 tspn. Salt
1 Bag (24 oz) Semisweet Chocolate Chips
2 C. Coarsely chopped nuts, if desired
Steps:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large bowl, beat the butter, both sugars, vanilla, and eggs with an electric mixer on medium speed (or a wooden spoon), until light and fluffy. Stir in flour, baking soda, and salt. Then stir in the chocolate chips and nuts.
2. If you want all the cookies to be uniform in size and shape. Measure out the dough with a ¼ C. dry-ingredient measuring cup. Then roll the dough into a ball. Set it on the pan and flatted with a fork so it is round. If this isn’t something that you are worried about, skip to step

3. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until light brown (the centers will be soft). Cool 1 to 2 minutes on cookie sheets, then remove cookies to a cooling rack.
(Camille’s Note: the cookies seemed to be burnt when I cooked them for the entire 12 minutes. I ended up cooking them for 7 – 8 minutes and they turned out great.)

Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownies
Buy a box of Brownie mix (I used Betty Crocker Chocolate Chunk) or use the brownie recipe I posted earlier this year. Make according to the box. Pour into pan. Take bits of cookie dough from the recipe above, roll into ball, and place randomly throughout the brownie pan. Bake as directed per the brownie recipe.
Enjoy!
