The Best Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe


I ate the cookies within a day of making them! Actually, I had been thinking about making some adjustments in the standard recipe for some time now. The result is two separate changes:

1. I set the brown sugar and white sugar components to be equal. Normally you see the brown sugar with more of primary sugar role in the recipe, but I really wanted to try out a new flavor.

2. Instead of putting in the normal amount of chocolate chips, I added and extra 1/2-1 serving to the cookie dough so that every bite would drench my tongue in chocolate. This change was done because my last batch of cookies just seemed like there were too few chips per bite.

So now that the changes have been introduced, here's that recipe you have been waiting for...

*This recipe is not for the faint at heart when dealing with the extra chocolate chips - so reduce the chip count if you cannot handle it*

The Best Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Ingriedients:
1/2 cup butter melted
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated white sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/4 cup flour
12 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips (another bag if you can handle it)
