My mother's old faded red cookbook has always been my favorite cookbook. In it, I discovered the BEST chocolate chip cookie recipe in the whole world! I'm positive I have made these cookies at least a hundred times in my 23 years of life. I am not lying when I say that these cookies are, WITHOUT A DOUBT, the best chocolate chip cookies ever! I have never met anyone who doesn't like them.So today, for my first Tasty Tuesday blog, I will share with you this cherished recipe. Seriously, these are amazing!
The BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies In The World
3 1/4 c. flour (approximately)
1 c. sugar
1 c. brown sugar
2 eggs
2/3 c. margerine (softened - NOT melted)
2/3 c. shortening
1 t. vanilla
1 t. salt
1 t. baking soda
12 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips
Combine all ingredients except flour and chocolate chips. Beat together with mixer. Add flour one cup at a time and mix together after each cup. If, after 3 cups, your dough pulls away from the bowl when stirred, your dough is perfect! If it still sticks to the sides of the bowl, add a bit more flour a few tablespoons at a time until dough pulls away from sides. Stir in chocolate chips.
Place cookie dough balls on an airbake cookie sheet and back at 350 degrees for 8-13 minutes or until very lightly browned. Let cookies cool on pan 3 minutes before removing and placing on cooling rack.
This recipe makes 4 dozen 2 1/2 inch cookies. That is, unless you eat half the dough while you're making them!
(Hint: For perfectly round cookies, use a cookie scoop)!
After you try them, leave me a comment and let me know what you think!
Okay, so I am going to try your cookie recipe. I just happen to have some shortening on hand, but I usually don't that is why I like, no love my Cookie Recipe. I noticed they are fairly the same except your's is in bigger quantities and it has the margarine and shortening instead of just butter.
ReplyDeleteI found the same recipe on the bag of chocolate chips I bought- SACO brand. You might sue them? O_O
