Best chocolate chip cookies ever!

     Alex and I love sweets and we have tried out a lot of chocolate chip cookie recipes, but this is definitely our favorite! It takes only 10 minutes to prep and 10 minutes to bake! It serves about 24.

    Ingredients:
     -1 cup of softened butter                    -1 teaspoon of baking soda
     -1 cup of white sugar                          -2 teaspoons of hot water
     -1 cup of brown sugar                        -1/4 teaspoon of salt
     -2 teaspoons of vanilla extract             -2 cups (or more!) of semisweet chocolate chips
     -3 cups of all purpose flour                 -1 cup of walnuts (optional)
     -2 eggs
   
    Directions:
     1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
     2.Cream together butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time then stir in the vanilla. Dissolve the baking soda in the hot water and add it to the batter along with the salt. Stir in the flour, chocolate chips, and walnuts. Spray nonstick cooking spray onto the cookie sheet and drop large spoonfuls a couple of inches apart.
     3. Bake for 10 minutes or until edges are brown.

     These cookies are my all-time favorite! Alex likes his best with a tall glass of milk, but who doesn't?!

   Just for the heck of it, here is a picture of Alex singing to me. It makes e laugh every single time! If you have any good recipes you would like to share, I would love to try them out! Just leave it in a comment!

Love,
