Famous Chocolate Chip Cookies~

I got this recipe from www.sistercafe.blogspot.com. They are really, really yummy! And easy! :)

1 cup (2 cubes) butter, softened, NOT MELTED
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
2 1/2 cup flour
3/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda

Mix butter and sugars - do not overmix. *The key to this recipe is minimal mixing - try a wooden sppon instead of a mixter. Add vanilla and eggs. Sift together dry ingredients and add them next. Mix until everything is combined. Add one package milk chocolate chips. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Take them out when they are barely brown.
Enjoy!
