Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 c. butter, softened
1 tsp. baking soda
1 1/3 c. sugar
½ tsp. salt
2/3 c. packed brown sugar
2 c. chocolate chips 2 eggs
3 c. flour
1 ½ tsp. vanilla

Heat oven to 350°

Combine butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla – beat until light and fluffy.
Stir in flour, baking soda and salt; mix well.
Stir in chocolate chips.
Drop by tablespoon onto ungreased cookie sheets. (I rolled them into balls.)
Bake in upper third of oven for ten minutes or until set. Cookies do not brown very much. Texture is soft when removed from oven but slightly crisp and chewy when cool. Let cookies cool on cookie sheet before removing to cool on wire racks.
Makes five dozen cookies.
