Chocolate Chip Cookies

Josh made these chocolate chip cookies last night because well... I wanted cookies. haha, they look a little funny, my theory is we overmixed. so dont overmix!  the dough should be thick, if its a little runny, throw it in the fridge for a bit. it helps! p.s. I know the measurements are a little odd, it's because the recipe is converted from a recipe that makes 8 dozen cookies... I don't think ANY of us need that many chocolate chip cookies. lol

Ingredients:
3/4 c. margarine, softened
1/2 c. + 2 Tbs white sugar
1/2 c. + 2 Tbs packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 egg
2 c. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 c. semisweet chocolate chips

Directions:
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350F, spray cookie sheet(s) with nonstick spray (very important!)

Step 2: In a large bowl, cream the margarine, white sugar, and brown sugar until they're smooth.  Beat in the egg and vanilla.

Step 3: In a separate bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, and salt.  Add to egg mixture and mix until blended, stir in chocolate chips.

Step 4: Drop spoon fulls of cookie dough onto greased cookie sheets and bake for 12-15 minutes depending on your oven and cookie size.  Ours were perfect at 14 mins!  When done, remove from cookie sheet and place on wire racks or paper towels (like I did) to cool.  Eat!

Comments: Our cookies came out shiny, and VERY light brown!
