Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have a really important question for you… Do you have a go-to recipe?

A recipe with ingredients that you always have on hand, you almost have memorized and takes you less than an hour to make.
This is the recipe you can whip out when you forgot about a potluck or a guest stops by or you find out your neighbor is sick but you don’t have much time.

My go-to is Chocolate Chip Cookies. All but one of the ingredients are kitchen staples. And honestly, chocolate chips ARE kitchen staples in this house.
Your go-to should be a classic. Something that’s easy to make and even easier to transport.

In a large mixing bowl, beat butter, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla until creamy.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Beat in flour mixture gradually.

Use a cookie scoop, mini ice cream scooper or 1 Tbsp measuring spoon to drop rounds of dough onto baking sheet.
Bake 10 minutes or until golden brown. I like mine super gooey! But you do you!
