Chocolate Chip Cookies

These are my favorite ones!!! Yesterday I rented a movie and just felt like having a glass of milk and fresh cookies to join it. Hope you enjoy!
Ingredients
·         2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda
·         1 teaspoon salt
·         1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
·         3/4 cup granulated sugar
·         3/4 cup packed brown sugar
·         1 teaspoon vanilla extract
·         2 large eggs
·         2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips ( you can use any kind but I prefer the Nestle ones)

Directions
Preheat oven to 375° F.

With the help of a beater combine flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl(all powdery stuff first). Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in a large mixer bowl until it feels creamy. Add eggs, one at a time ( I check them individually before adding them), beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir the chocolate chips ( you can add some nuts if you want). Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets ( I use wax paper to avoid fighting afterwards).

Let them bake  for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown, they´ll be a bit soft still by the time you take them out, this will about having “hard as stone” cookies. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
