THE BEST, NO-FAIL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
This recipe was given to me by a dear friend of mine at my bridal shower. I have tried other chocolate chip recipes before, but none come even close to this one. These cookies are so soft, and the best part is you can be creative in what you add. I have used Andes Mint pieces, butterscotch chips, white chocolate, you name it, it works in this recipe! Yummy! This makes a lot of cookies! I have tried to half the recipe, but the eggs gets a bit tricky and they don't seem to turn out quite as good. I usually make the whole batch, and then I put the extra dough formed into log shapes, wrapped in wax paper, then placed in ziplock bags into my freezer. You can have cookies ready almost immediately that way. You can either defrost them fully, or I just slice the dough (kind of like the store bought dough in a tube) and bake them for a few extra minutes.

NEVER FLAT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
Here's the recipe that will ensure you never again bake FLAT cookies! Recipe and tips from my Aunt. *NOTE: My Aunt swears by melting the butter & shortening for a "better texture", but I'm removing that from the directions because I don't like the results. She also mixes by hand to prevent over-mixing, but I'm including the Mixer directions for those who prefer that. Basically the tips are: use a combo of butter and shortening, don't over-mix, keep everything cool, and don't over-bake.

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.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies. Look for chocolate chips that are made with real chocolate and butter that is unsalted.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the dough, which will make your cookies light and chewy.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make your cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help to prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help to create a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help to prevent the cookies from breaking.
Conclusion:
These chocolate chip cookies are the perfect treat for any occasion. They're easy to make and always a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
