{The Perfect} Chocolate Chip Cookies



So, ever since we've been married, I've {attempted} to make several batches of chocolate chip cookies, and they have ALL resulted in a big, blob of a greasy mess! Epic fail every time! So sad! So, my sweet husband got his mom's wonderful recipe for the perfect chocolate chip cookies. We tried them and they were a success! Ours did not raise as much as they should, but I think that is because we didn't use REAL butter. [next time ;)] But I loved this recipe! ----thanks Linda!









Linda's Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe
in large bowl or mixer combine:

2 C room temperature butter (may substitute half with Nucoa)
2 C white sugar
2 C brown sugar

cream these together until they are smooth then add:

4 extra large eggs (or five medium)

blend well then slowly add:

2 T real vanilla
1 T salt (scant - or not quite)
2 t baking powder
2 t baking soda
6 cups flour

chocolate chips - 1 bag or more - as desired

line baking sheet with parchment paper for best results

bake six large cookies to a sheet - 375 degrees for 13 minutes - makes about three dozen large cookies (people rave about these the most)

for small cookies bake 12 to a sheet at 400 degrees for 9 minutes - makes about six dozen
