Рецепт Our Favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies
for our family's favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies to Laura of "The Spiced Life", and Shelby of "The Life and Loves of Grumpy's Honeybunch", for this months "Family Recipes; Memories of Family, Food and Fun!" Here's the recipe for these super cookies!
Chocolate Chip Cookies- Our family's Favorite!
- 2/3 butter, softened to room temperature
- 2/3 shortening
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 3 cups flour
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda (originally called for 1 tsp. soda)
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 cup chopped nuts; I use pecans
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips or dark chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, cream the butter, shortening, eggs, sugars and vanilla together until creamy. In another bow, mix the flour, soda and salt together. Add to the butter mixture and mix well. Add the nuts and chocolate chips and stir until well combined. I use a tablespoon to measure the dough so they will be similar in size. Drop dough by tablespoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8-10 minutes, or until light brown around the edges. Remove from oven and let cookies cool slightly before removing from the cookie sheet. Cool completely and store in air tight container. Makes about 5-6 dozen, depending on how big you make them. Best eaten straight out of the oven, of course! Enjoy these addictive cookies!
I know there are plenty of cookies on the Internet, especially chocolate chip, but these are wonderful. I've tried other recipes and I keep coming back to these so, I'm just sharing our favorite, so far. These cookies have made many wonderful memories in our family and we have shared them with friends and neighbors at Christmas time. Try them, you'll like them!
