Yesterday afternoon, I got a hankering for a chocolate chip cookie. To my knowledge, this is the 1st recipe that I ever made as a young teen. This ia all that is left the morning after . . .
Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 cup Five Roses All-purpose Flour
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla (use real Mexican vanilla)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweetened)
1/2 cup butter
2/3 cup brown sugar
Stir Five Roses Flour, salt and baking soda together. Mix 2 tablespoons of the dry ingredients with the chocolate chips.
Cream butter; add brown sugar gradually, beating until creamy.
Beat in egg and vanilla. Add dry ingredients, mixing well. Fold in the chocolate chips. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet.
Bake in a moderate oven (375°F) 8 to 10 minutes or until done.
Cool slightly before removing from pan.
Yield: 2 dozen or so.
Variation: substitute 1/2 cup chopped walnuts & ˝ cup chocolate chips (I never do but I’m a CCC purist)
