Recipe for Toll House Cookies

2 ¼ cups flour1 teaspoon baking soda1 teaspoon salt1 cup butter or margarine (2 sticks) at room temperature¾ cup sugar¾ cup packed brown sugar1 teaspoon vanilla2 eggs2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (One 12 ounce pkg)1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
First, combine the flour, baking soda and salt in a separate bowl. Then in a separatemixing bowl cream together the room temperature butter/margarine, both sugars and vanilla. Add the eggs and beat to combine, then gradually add the flour mixture. Once all the flour mixture is mixed in, stir in the chips and the nuts with a spoon, not the mixer, so that the chips and nuts will not break up any further.
Use a spoon to drop the batter in spoon sized drops on an ungreased cookie sheet andbake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 10-11 minutes. My oven runs cold so I use the full 11 minutes, you will have to experiment a little for best results with your oven. There’s nothing worse than burned cookies!
