Ingredients:
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 cup butter, softened
• 2 large eggs,beaten
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
• if desired, 1 cup chopped pecans, or chopped walnuts
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Mix sugar, brown sugar, butter, vanilla and eggs in a large bowl by hand.
Stir in flour, baking soda, and salt. (The dough will be very stiff.)
Make sure that the dough is well mixed before moving on.
Stir in chocolate chips by hand.
You can add the pecans, or other nuts, at this time if desired.
Keep stirring and folding the chocolate chips and nuts into the dough until they are evenly dispersed.
Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light brown. (You may even think that the chocolate chip cookies are underdone, but they will finish cooking through out of the oven.)
The centers will be soft.
Let cool completely* then remove from cookie sheet.
*If you try to remove the cookies while they are still warm, the chocolate chips are still very soft and this can cause a very big mess as well as messy looking cookies.
