My favorite is the one right on the back of a bag of Nestle chocolate chips. They always turn out AMAZING for me!

Answer 3

I think this first one is it, but I am putting several here

Chocolate Chip cookies–perfect every time

1 pound of butter (that’s 2 cups or 4 quarters)

1 2/3 c. white sugar

2 c. brown sugar

3 eggs

2 t. vanilla

1/2 t. salt

1 1/2 t. soda

6 1/4 c. all-purpose flour

1 1/2 pkg. chocolate chips

Cream sugar and shortening together. Beat in eggs. Add remaining ingredients in the order listed. Bake at 350 on greased cookie sheet **OR PARCHMENT** until golden brown. Remove from pan immediately and let cool. If you eat them too soon, the chocolate chips will burn your mouth.

Some fun variations that we do occasionally: We substitute 1 c. unsweetened cocoa powder for 1 c. flour and make chocolate chocolate chip cookies. We also substitute 1/2 c. malted milk powder for 1/2 c. flour for chocolate chip malt cookies.

The key to perfect cookies lies in not baking them too long (assuming you like chewy cookies) and in baking them on parchment on an insulated cookie sheet. The parchment, with the cookies, can slide right off the pan when they are just perfectly baked. You don’t mangle the cookies by trying to get them off the cookie sheet with a spatula.

Answer 5

This one is REALLY good - I'm sure everyone will like it;

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  

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). 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. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand using a wooden spoon. Drop cookie dough 1/4 cup at a time onto the prepared cookie sheets. Cookies should be about 3 inches apart.

Bake for 15 to 17 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the edges are lightly toasted. Cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Makes 18.

Answer 6

There's a recipe under the cover of the Instant (or Old Fashioned?) Quaker Oats container. It's called "Vanishing Oatmeal Raisin Cookies," but I use chocolate chips instead of raisins.

It's an absolutely delicious recipe that I would highly recommend.  It has all the ingredients you mentioned.

Here's the recipe: http://www.cdkitchen.com/recipes/recs/29...

Answer 7

This is going to sound rediculous but its true. Buy Betty Crocker cookie mix which comes in like a pouch in the cookie and cake aisle. My favorite is the oatmeal chocolate chip but the chocolate chip ones are delish too. (:
