Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is definitely a favorite. When my brother and I were small, we lived in the country and our mom was a stay at home mom. There were many days we would come home from school to the smell of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. They are best served warm with an icy cold glass of milk. This recipe lends itself well to doubling.

Ingredients

1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/4 cups flour
1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

Cream together margarine, brown sugar, sugar, egg, and vanilla. Mix in salt, baking soda, baking powder, and flour. Add chocolate chips. Drop by rounded teaspoonful on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
