After mixing all the wet ingredients and sugars together, add in the last ingredient - the flour. Combine it all together.

Add in the best part! The chocolate chips :-) Any type of chocolate can be used for this but I chose to use semi-sweet Nestle chocolate chips. Dump a whole bag of these in.

I used a melon ball scoop so my balls were all around the same size. Depending on how large you want the cookies, you can go smaller or larger! With the oven set at 350 degrees, it is not ready to put the cookies in. Bake for 13 minutes just until the tops are golden brown.

Let the cookies cool on the pan for about 10 minutes so they do not fall apart completely. With a spatula, pick up the cookie and put it on a cooling rack.

Your ending result should look exactly like this! Only stack the cookies when you know for sure they are cooled so none of them stick together. I hope you enjoy!! :)

    I agree with Danielle’s statement! These do look delicious and this is a very informative post. It makes me want to match a batch right now actually. Is chocolate chip your favorite kind of cookie? Or are there others that you prefer?

    These look great! I definitely want some chocolate chip cookies now! Would it be possible to eat the cookie dough without baking them?!

    These do look very good just like everyone else said! I can’t wait to try this recipe, did you find this in a family cook book?

    Thank you for share these delightful treats! I will definitely have to try the recipe! Now, when I add the vanilla extract, could I add a little more for flavor or will that be over powering?

    This cookies are delicious because I’ve had some of yours before! Have you ever tried to make the cookie dough for these cookies without egg in order to make the dough better for you to eat? If so do they still taste the same?

    I would really love some of these cookies right now! I tend to like my cookies extra soft and chewy, is there a special method for doing this?

    They look amazing! Did you come up with the recipe yourself?

    They look so delicious. Would it hurt to put them in for a couple minutes longer? And could you also use white chocolate chip instead of the ones you used?

    These cookies look delicious. If I wanted to would I be able to ad some peanut butter cups instead of the chocolate chips?

    These look delicious? Does the size of the dough ball you put in the oven affect the cooking time? If so, by how much?

    These cookies look awesome and very delicious. I will definitely try this recipe out but my question is how would you keep them from hardening up after sitting for more than an hour?

    Just looking at the picture at this time of night makes me want some. Hold on! Let me go get some for myself….Ok back yup now that I have some of these I can definitely agree that yours are probably better cause they are homemade. Thanks for making me hungry. I am lucky to have them here because I would be really angry if I didn’t have any.

    I like the structure of this post, how each picture has instructions to make it easy for someone to make these cookies. They look delicious! Could you remove the eggs to make the batter safe to eat raw? Just a thought!
