Cookies!

This is a fun blog I like to visit to get new recipes and ideas for things to change up are regular meals.  I LOVE this chocolate chip cookie recipe.  The recipe makes about 100 cookies and we probably could eat them all at one time but we try to control ourselves!  I usually make up the cookie dough and bake off however many I need or want at the time and then make the rest into balls and freeze.  The picture is curtesy of Kade :)

Then whenever I need cookies I can just pull them out of the freezer and bake as many as I need.   This has come in so handy so many times when I need a treat to take to the visiting teachers or a neighbor or a family outing. 

Here is the recipe:

3 1/2 cubes real butter softened

1 1/2 cups sugar

2 1/4 cups brown sugar packed

4 eggs

2 TBSP. vanilla

6 cups flour

2 tsp. baking soda

1 TBSP.  baking powder

1 1/2 tsp. salt

1 lb. chocolate chips

Cream butter and sugars, add eggs and vanilla and mix well.  Mix dry ingredients and add to sugar mixture.  Add chocolate chips.  Scoop with a small ice cream scoop.  Bake at 325 for 8-9 min.   

** The recipe says 325 for 8-9 min.   Mine are never done in that time.  I bake at 330 for about 10-11 min.  **

ENJOY!
