- 1 cup softened margarine (2 sticks)
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 2/3 cup white sugar
- 2 medium eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2-1/4 cups flour
- 1 cup chocolate chips (about 1/2 of
a 12 ounce bag)
First get out your favorite big mixing bowl.
Put the soft margarine in it, or you can
soften the margarine in the microwave, if it
is hard from the fridge. Measure the sugars
into the bowl with the soft margarine. Use a
whisk or large spoon to mix the sugar and
margarine together until it is soft, smooth
and fluffy. Add the eggs. Beat the mixture
until it emulsifies into a smooth satiny
batter. Add the vanilla and salt; mix well.
Now sprinkle in the baking soda, and dump in
the flour. Use a big spoon to stir it all up
to a nice smooth dough. Add the chocolate
chips. Stir again.
Drop the cookie dough by rounded spoonfuls
onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake them at
350° for 10 minutes. They will be a light
golden brown, and have an incredibly
enticing aroma. Transfer the cookies to a
spread out dish cloth to cool. Bake another
batch. This recipe makes about 4 or 5 dozen
cookies, depending on how big you make them.
They have fewer chocolate chips than other
chocolate chip cookie recipes, but there are
still enough chips to make them taste
sinfully good.
