This I made for my husband. Nothing pleases this man more than fresh cookies. And I'm hoping that he will appreciate them enough to clean up the pans I left in the kitchen. No one ever talks about the fun clean up portion of cooking. And there is A LOT! Kinda makes just buying the bagged cookies seem that much easier... I need to get myself a little helper!
So instead of making a simple classic chocolate chip cookie I chose to mix it up and add in some butter chips to the recipe found on the Nestle Toll House chocolate chip bag. That's right I am becoming more confident and adding to existing recipes. Watch out Martha Stewart!
Ingredients:
(makes 60 delicious cookies)
2 1/4 cups of all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
1 cup peanut butter chips
(Nestle Toll House)
Directions:
Step 1: Preheat oven 375 F
Step2: Using wire whip mix butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy on level 2 approx 1 minute
Step 3: Add eggs, one at a time with mixer on level 2
Step 4: Mix in flour, baking soda and salt on level 2 gradually move to level 4 for 2 minutes
Step 5: At tablespoon side scoops place on non-stick cookie pans about 1 inch apart
Step 5: Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown (let cool 2 min after baking)
Step 6: Move onto wire rack and let cool completely
Tips:
*Be sure to make the cookie dough in a ball shape on the pan. If it's spread out and not a ball the cookies will more than likely end up looking like the ones I made, pancake shaped cookies!
*Since this recipe makes 60 cookies SHARE them!!! Everybody loves cookies and there is absolutely no reason you should need 60 to yourself.
