The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie

Source

Ingredients:
1/2 c. butter
1/2 c. high-quality tub margarine (we just use more butter)
3/4 c. white sugar
1 c. brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
3 c. flour
3/4 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1 12-oz. bag chocolate chips (we only use 1/2 because we prefer the higher cookie-to-chocolate ratio)

Directions:
1. Cream together butter, margarine, sugars, eggs, and vanilla.
2. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, salt, and baking soda.
3. Add flour mixture to creamed mixture and beat well.
4. Stir in chocolate chips.
5. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes - optional ;)

Notes: To cook or not to cook - the ultimate chocolate chip cookie question. Bret is a dough boy, I'm a baked girl. Most recipes are better in one form or the other, but not this one. It knocks the ball out of the park in both. The really is the best chocolate chip cookie recipe that I've ever tasted!
