How to Make Mom's Chocolate Chips Cookies

This easy chocolate chip cookie recipe started my "career" in the kitchen. My mom taught me how to bake them and now I have taught my son. Through the years, I have tried different cookie recipes, but keep coming back to this one.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 1 cup & 2T. all purpose flour
• 1/2 t. baking soda
• 1/2 t. salt
• 6 T. sugar
• 6 T. brown sugar
• 1/3 cup butter, melted
• 1/2 t. vanilla
• 1 cup chocolate chips

1. In a large mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly together.

2. To the dry mix, add the egg and vanilla and mix well. Batter will be crumbly.

3. Add melted butter to the crumbly mixture and stir until batter begins to stick together. If this does not happen, add more flour.

4. Fold in the chocolate chips.

5. With a tablespoon, pack the batter into a ball in order to produce cookies that are all the same size.
