Cookies

Last night I really wanted to make some chocolate chip cookies. Don't know why, but I made some anyway. Now the idea behind this blog was for me to cook out of my cookbooks. But I didn't have a cook book handy so, I just looked up a recipe online. Now it is just a normal chocolate chip cookie recipe, nothing special about it. So I am just going to but what I did instead of the recipe and what I changed.

Chocolate Chip and Mint Cookies

2 Sticks of butter (1 cup)
3/4 Cup of sugar
3/4 Cup of brown sugar
2 1/4 Cups of flour
1 Teaspoon salt
1 Teaspoon baking soda
2 Teaspoons of vanilla
2 Eggs
2 Cups chocolate chips
1/2 Cup of mint chocolate chips

Pre heat oven to 350 and grease the cookie sheets

In a large blow blend together the butter and both sugars until it's well blended. Then add the eggs one at a time and blend, add vanilla and blend. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; stir til creamy. Added the chocolate and the mint chocolate chips and fold them into the mixture.

Use a small spoon and scope out the dough roll into balls and set them on the cookie sheet.

Bake for 20 minute or until they start to get brown on the bottom.

I'm sure late down the road I will have other cookie recipes. I know i really enjoyed this one and so did my boyfriend. So happy cooking everyone.
