PERFECT (NEVER FLAT) CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 365 degrees.
• Cream butter until smooth, add sugars and cream again.
• Add eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
• Add flours, salt, baking powder and baking soda, mix until incorporated, then mix in chocolate chips. (A stand mixer is recommended as the dough will be very thick).

• Bake 9-10 minutes until VERY light golden - do not overcook.
• Cool on baking sheet 3-4 minutes before removing to cooling rack.

BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Dissolve baking soda in hot water. Add to batter along with salt. Stir in flour, chocolate chips, and nuts. Drop by large spoonfuls onto ungreased pans.
• Bake for about 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are nicely browned.

NEVER FLAT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Combine the flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl.
• In another, larger, bowl add the sugars, vanilla and milk; then cream in the butter and shortening by beating on medium-low just until there are no sugar clumps; *be careful not to overmix.
• Beat in (on medium-low) the eggs, one at a time; then gradually add in your flour mixture; *don't overmix!
• Stir in the chips and nuts; Regular sized Nestle chips melts fine, but regular sized Hershey chips don't melt fast enough.
• Drop by rounded tablespoons onto ungreased baking sheets; *Either rinse your cookie sheets in cool water between batches or cool them off in the freezer for a minute (if dough spreads when you place it on the sheet then the edges might burn and the cookies will flatten - no hotter than room temp); also keep your dough cool in the fridge between batches (this is VERY important).
• Bake for 7 to 11 minutes or until barely golden brown - if you over-bake then you risk all of your hard work turning into flatness.
• OPTIONS-.
• If you sub oatmeal or coconut for the nuts, then add in another 1 or 2 T of milk; Peanut butter chips or buterscotch chips can also be substituted for the nuts - the cookies will be a little moister.
• DO NOT ever use margarine.
• Salt compliments chocolate and nuts very well, but if you want to omit 1/2 teaspoon then that's fine.

FLAT AND CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk flour, salt, and baking soda in a bowl; set aside. In a bowl, beat sugars and butter with a mixer on medium speed until fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Beat in eggs one at a time; beat in vanilla. Add reserved flour mixture, chocolate, and nuts; mix until just combined (I used my hand mixer on low speed). Chill.
• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Divide dough into 1-tbsp. portions; roll into balls, transfer to parchment paper-lined baking sheets spaced 3" apart, and flatten. Bake until set, about 15 minutes.
