Chocolate Chip Cookies

Yields approximately 48 cookies

1¼ cups all-purpose flour (sifted)

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ cup granulated sugar

½ cup brown sugar

1 large egg

½ cup butter (at room temperature)

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

¾ teaspoon salt

½ cup milk chocolate chips

½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

 

1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
2. In a bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, combine butter and both sugars. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla extract. Continue to beat until the mixture is well incorporated.
4. Gradually add dry mixture to bowl of wet mixture. Continue to mix until incorporated. Fold in chocolate chips.
5. Place about a teaspoon of cookie dough onto greased cookie sheets (or cookie sheets lined with wax or parchment paper), spacing each piece of dough approximately 2 inches apart. Bake at 350° F for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
6. Place sheets on wire racks and allow cookies to cool for a few minutes before serving.
