  • 1 pound butter, melted

    In a large mixing bowl, mix butter & sugars together until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla and mix thoroughly. In a separate bowl, mix dry ingredients together. Add to wet ingredients and stir together until just blended - do not overmix! Stir in chocolate chips (and whatever optional ingredients you desire). This dough is fairly dry.

    Drop by tablespoonfuls on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Cookies will seem a little undercooked & that’s okay. You don’t want to overbake these!
