Famous Chocolate Chip Cookies

Happy 4th of July!  It has been a tradition in my family to bake these scrumptious cookies for the 4th of July.  Nothing like a good ole American favorite on this day!


Here is the secret to Nestle Toll House Cookies:  Make half a batch at a time!  They will come out fluffy and golden...crazy I know!

1 stick of butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 2/3 cup flour
1 cup chocolate chips

PREHEAT oven to 375 degrees F.
COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter.  Then add, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Beat in egg. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels. Drop a tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.
BAKE for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.


ENJOY with a glass of ice cold milk!
