ANOTHER CCC recipe - but hey, why not? It's super good and famous because it won an award.
Famous Chocolate Chip Cookies Melanie/Brittany thesisterscafe.com
2 cubes (1 cup) butter,
softened *not melted!*
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups flour
3/4 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
Mix butter, shortening
and sugars – do not over mix. (The key to this recipe is minimal mixing – try
it with a wooden spoon instead of a mixer.) Add vanilla and eggs. Sift together
dry ingredients and add them next. Mix until everything is combined. Add one
package of milk chocolate chips. (Guittard is my all time favorite. The milk
chocolate chips are large and so smooth and creamy… yum!) Chill for 1 hour
before baking for best results. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes (or a couple minutes more depending on size of cookie). Take them out when they are barely
brown, let cool a few minutes then transfer to a wire rack.
