Today is my 100th blog post. Thank you all so much for reading and your encouragement. To make this post special I am posting one of the most requested items I make. Chocolate Chip Cookies I have been making this recipe for over 25 years now and everyone seems to always want them. They will be one the featured items in my Cookbook if I can get it published. Only a select few friends and family know it. I love these cookies plain, but have dipped them in chocolate and then drizzled them with white chocolate for special occasions. So here it is, my prized secret is now out. Share it with your kids.
Ingredients
2 sticks of Imperial Margarine( I have tried butter, but the cookies get too greasy)
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup of brown sugar
1 large egg
½ tbl vanilla extract
2 ¼ cups of all purpose flour
1 tsp salt
½ tsp baking soda
1 ½ cups chocolate chips
Sift flour, salt and baking soda together. In a large bowl or a mixer cream margarine and sugars until fluffy. Add egg and vanilla and mix well. Scrape down sides of bowl and add flour gradually. Scrape bowl occasionally while you add flour. When flour is incorporated add chips and mix in gently. Chill dough for 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Scoop cookies with a ¾ of an ounce or 1 ounce scoop and place on lined cookie sheets.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until lighly browned.
