Classic Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Sometimes I just really want a freshly made chocolate chip cookie.  And sometimes I have to make it NOW.  Even if it is 90 degrees outside.  I use butter and not margarine. 
Here is the recipe:

·        2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

·        1 teaspoon baking soda

·        1 teaspoon salt

·        1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened (and as I learned in class this is an important part)

·        3/4 cup granulated sugar

·        3/4 cup packed brown sugar

·        1 teaspoon vanilla extract

·        2 large eggs

·        2 cups Nestlé Toll House Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels

1.     Preheat oven to 375°F (Convection if possible)

2.     Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto greased baking sheets.  (I have a tablespoon scoop from King Arthur Flour so every cookie is the same size)

3.     Bake for 9  minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

TTry not to eat all of the cookies at once.
