nothing beats the best

My Mom makes...hands down...the best chocolate chip cookies!

Writing and photographing for magazines offers me the opportunity

to share many things and I was so thrilled to share

her recipe for yummy home-made chocolate chippers.

 

Nothing fancy...but utterly scrumptious.

 

I thought I would post her recipe just in case you are in search

of something yummy to take to a 4th of July celebration

this weekend...Enjoy!

 

 

Ingredients

¾ cup of butter

¾ of brown sugar

¾ cup of white sugar

1 t vanilla

2 eggs

2 ½ cups flour

1 t baking soda

½ t salt

12 ounces chocolate chips

 

Directions:

1.       Using an electric mixer, cream ¾ cup of butter, ¾ of brown sugar, ¾ cup of white sugar, and one teaspoon of vanilla.

2.       Continue mixing and add two eggs (one at a time)

3.       Beat until smooth

4.       In a separate bowl combine 2 1/2 cups of flour, 1 t of baking soda and ¼ t of salt

5.       Add the dry mixture slowly into the mixing bowl to incorporate

6.       Once incorporated add  12 ounces of chocolate chips and stir

7.       Drop by rounded spoonful onto a lightly greased cookie sheet

8.       Bake at 350 degrees for 8 10 minutes

9.       Allow cookies to stand on the cookie sheet for one minute then remove to a clean surface to cool.

 

The only thing better than her cookies...

is actually sharing them with her!

 

 

Love you Momma...
