I repeat...

These are the best Chocolate Chip Cookies.


BIG, FAT, CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 egg
1 egg yolk
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (I USE 1 1/2 cups GHIRARDELLI MILK CHOC. CHIPS)
1/2 cup (or more) chopped walnuts

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.

Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.

In a medium bowl, cream together the melted butter, brown sugar and white sugar until well blended. Beat in the vanilla, egg, and egg yolk until light and creamy. Mix in the sifted ingredients until just blended. Do not overmix. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand using a wooden spoon.

Spoon large "globs" of dough onto cookie sheet. Bake, reversing position of cookie sheets halfway through baking, until cookies are light golden brown and outer edges start to harden yet centers are still soft and puffy (approximately 10-13 minutes). Do not overbake. Cool cookies on sheets until able to lift without breaking. DELICIOUS!!

Here is where I got the recipe:

I think it's funny the post for chocolate chip cookies is a week after the half marathon post. If you start training, then you can eat lots of cookies. That's my thinking, anyway.
