When I fell in love with my husband 4 years ago, I met the crazy cast of characters that I would now call family.
I was introduced to a family of farmers living out in the country and they were introduced to a tattooed city girl. Probably not what they had always pictured for Jeremy!
So when his Grandma shared with me her top secret family recipe for her famous chocolate chip cookies, I knew I had been accepted.
This is by far the best chocolate chip cookie I've ever tasted!
Start by preheating the oven to 375 F.
Combine 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl.
Add 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 3/4 cup packed brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to a large mixing bowl and beat until creamy.
Add 2 large eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Gradually beat in the flour mixture.
Stir in 2 cups (12 ounce package) semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 cup chopped nuts.
Drop by rounded tablespoons onto ungreased baking sheets.
Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes and remove to wire racks to cool completely.
This is the only chocolate chip cookie recipe we use in this house. They're just perfect! I like to use walnuts in mine, but my husband likes them best with no nuts at all.
And no cookie would be complete without a cold glass of milk to go with it!
