Do you have an easy chocolate chip cookie recipe?
For Christmas presents, as an inexpensive gift, I'm planning to put all of the dry ingredients into a cute decorative jar, print up the recipe in a fancy manner, and give the gift of cookies that they can bake themselves. Does anyone have an easy chocolate chip cookie recipe that might be good to use in this situation?
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup butter or margarine, room temperature
1 package (12 ounces or 2 cups) semisweet chocolate chips
1 to 2 cups chopped walnuts or pecans, optional
PREPARATION:
Directions for chocolate chip cookies
Sift flour, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl. Add sugars, eggs, vanilla and butter. With an electric hand held mixer at medium speed, beat until smooth and well mixed, about 1 minute.
Stir in chocolate chips and nuts, if using. Drop by tablespoonful about 2 inches apart, onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake chocolate chip cookies at 375° for 10 to 12 minutes, or until browned. Remove chocolate chip cookies to rack to cool. Makes about 6 dozen chocolate chip cookies.
