Best Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

What you need:

1 cup of packed brown sugar
1/2 cup of granulated sugar
1/2 cup of melted butter or oil
2 eggs
2 1/4 cups of all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon of salt
1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup of m&ms or nuts (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla. Beat in the flour, baking soda and salt. Fold in the chocolate chips and m&ms or nuts (optional). Drop by spoonfuls onto a baking sheet and bake for 10 - 12 minutes or golden brown.

When the cookies are cool, I like to dip mine in melted chocolate and roll them in sprinkles or nuts. I also like to press and bake the dough in a 9x9 pan and make chocolate chip cookie bars. I always have some of these cookies in the freezer so my boyfriend can pull them out and eat them whenever!
