2 cookie sheets 

2 sticks melted butter

3/4 cup sugar

3/4 cup brown sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp. pure vanilla (2 tsp. if using imitation)

2 1/4 cups all purpose four

1 ts. baking soda

1 tsp. salt

3 cups chocolate chips

 

Preheat oven to 350°. Blend butter and both sugars until soft. Add eggs, vanilla, flour, baking soda and salt. Mix well. Gently mix in chocolate chips. Scoop by tablespoon size onto cookie sheets. Bake at 350° for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly brown. Very Important!: Squish all sides of cookie together using a spoon or your fingers. Bake 1 additional minute. Let sit 2 minuets on cookie sheet before removing to cool. This sets the bottom & gives that small amount  of crunch. Makes a difference. Makes 2 dozen cookies.
