My family had been asking for chocolate chip cookies for weeks-I kept forgetting to make them. While watching a movie with the family, one of them said, “are we ever getting chocolate chip cookies”? Made them right then. They were so warm and gooey! A perfect treat to eat while watching a great movie. Don’t forget the milk. Milk and chocolate chip cookies just go together!

We love milk chocolate chips. We love semi-sweet, too. Also, we love dark chocolate chips and white chocolate chips-so all chocolate chips! In this recipe, I love the milk chocolate. They add the perfect chocolate flavor.

Ingredients Needed for Chocolate Chip Cookies:

• 1 cup butter melted but not hot
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 3 ½ cups flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tbsp hot water
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 ½ cups milk chocolate chips extra for the tops

Instructions:

1. Melt butter slowly in the microwave. Stir. Do not let the butter get hot.
2. In a mixing bowl with an electric mixer, combine melted butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and creamy. 
3. Add eggs and vanilla. Combine well.
4. Dissolve baking soda in hot water.
5. Add salt, dissolved baking soda, and flour one cup at a time to the butter and sugar mixture. Combine well. 
6. Stir in chocolate chips.
7. Roll cookie dough into balls or use a cookie scoop. (makes about 20 cookies-depends on size)
8. I like to break each cookie dough ball in half. Press it back together with the broken sides now being the top. Press a few extra chocolate chips into the top of each cookie before baking.
9. Place cookie dough balls on a parchment covered cookie sheet. 
10. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes (if you are making small cookies, reduce baking time-remove when cookies begin to turn light brown. Cool on the baking sheet for 1-2 minutes and then move cookies to a cooling rack. Do not over bake.
11. Enjoy! Store in an airtight container when cooled. Definitely enjoy some when they are warm.

Cooks Note:

When measuring flour, I like to fluff the flour with my measuring cup, then scoop the flour into the measuring cup and level it off with the straight edge of a butter knife. (sometimes I am too lazy to scoop the flour into a cup with a spoon)
