I've never made such good cookies until this batch. I followed my sister-in-law's advice about underbaking your cookies to make sure they are warm and gooey, not crisp and dry.
This is my mom's recipe, and basically she makes the best cookies EVER. Ask my cousins, they love them!
Ingredients:
11 TABLEspoons margarine (I used 12)
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 brown sugar
Cream these together first
Add:
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
Mix together, then add:
1 3/4 cups flour (I usually add a 4th at a time, to make sure the mixing isn't too hard)
1/2 cup chocolate chips (I used mint, but you can add any flavor just make sure it's semi-sweet)
A small bag of pecans (or any nut you want) chopped (to chop them, I put them in a zip lock bag, and smashed them with a rolling pin)
I've heard that white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts are really good.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 11-12 minutes.
Makes 32 cookies
I made 18 cookies, just because I made my cookies a little bigger. I wanted them to fit on 2 pans. Therefore, I baked each pan for 14-15 minutes. Make sure they don't get brown. Once you take them out of the oven, they will look swollen, but as they cool, they will go down.
Just remember that oven time may vary. I live in a high altitude, and I have a gas oven. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but I just thought I'd put that out there.
Enjoy!
P.S. sorry for the crappy picture.
