Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies
I’ve been buying chocolate chips like they’re going out of style – what girl can resist a chocolate sale?
So with a multitude of bags in the cupboard, I felt that it was finally time to make chocolate chip cookies. I got this recipe from one of my Mom’s cookbooks and it’s about as basic as a recipe gets (which makes it one of my favourites!)
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup margarine
- 1 egg
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 2 cups flour
- dash salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 pkg milk chocolate chips [my mom makes them with white chips and they’re delicious too!]
Mix all ingredients. Drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheet. Bake at 325F for 8 minutes, or until edges are lightly browned.
[side note: I kept these cookies in the oven for closer to 15 minutes – because 8 minutes was hardly long enough]
