Chocolate Chip Cookies

I so did not have enough chocolate chips for I threw in some butterscotch chips and pecans to make up the difference.

I got the recipe from A Passion for Baking by Marcy Goldman

Tender, Buttery Chocolate Chunk Cookies

yield: 3-4 dozen

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar

1/2 cup white sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

2 large eggs

2 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoons salt

3 cups chocolate chips (or any other "garnish")

Preheat oven to 350F

In a mixer bowl, cream butter and both sugars until very smooth, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add vanilla and eggs blend well. Fold in flour, baking soda, and salt and mix well about 2 to 3 minutes. Fold in the chocolate chips

Bake for 10-13 minutes for smaller cookies and 14-18 minutes for larger cookies.

I like using ice cream scoops, I have a I think a 3 Tablespoon one I love it!
