Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies

Comments:
It’s a classic and is on the back of the Nestle semi-sweet morsel bag! This was the first thing my mom taught me to make as a child -- and she let me lick the beaters! Makes 60 cookies.
A note about cookies: if they are done on top, but black on the bottom, you have a bad cookie sheet. Try an insulated one or a baking stone.

Ingredients:

• 2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened (I use butter flavor Crisco)
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 2 eggs
• 1 bag (12 oz.) Nestle semi-sweet morsels
• 1 cup chopped nuts (optional - I usually skip these)
  

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 F. In small bowl combine flour, soda and salt; set aside. In large mixer bowl, beat butter, sugars and vanilla until creamy. Beat in eggs. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels and nuts.

Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 9-11 minutes until edges are golden brown. Remove from oven and let sit on cookie sheet for 2 minutes before removing to wire rack.
