GRANDMA MARGE'S CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
ingredients:
1 cup butter (softened, not melted)
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar (packed)
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons hot water
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups all~purpose flour
2 cups semi~sweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
preheat oven to 350°. cream together butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. beat in the eggs, one at a time. add vanilla. dissolve baking soda in hot water and add to batter with salt. stir in flour, chocolate chips, and nuts. drop by spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet (i always use parchment paper for easy clean up). bake for about 10 minutes, or until edges are a pretty brown. makes about 4 dozen cookies, depending on how big your spoonfuls are.
oh! AND, by the way, tomorrow (august 4th) is national chocolate chip day! celebrate by making these delicious cookies! or with a big old bowl of mint chocolate chip ice cream!!
