My daughter, Ruth, is an AWESOME baker...when it comes to chocolate chip cookies, she's the best...which is why this photo recipe tutorial thingy features her and not me...and of course, her recipe. She was making these cookies for a special get together with the youth group at church. I keep trying to get my daughter here to blog once a week on my blog, but this is as close as it gets so far...;)
Of course the second we started to bake cookies, we realized we were out of brown sugar...but no worries. If you have white sugar and molasses, you can make some brown sugar. Mix 2T. of molasses for every 1 c. of white sugar.
First we creamed together:
1 c. butter
1c. brown sugar
1c. white sugar
Next, we added 2 eggs and a splash of vanilla, and beat it well.
In a separate bowl, we mixed 2 1/2 cups of all purpose flour, 2t. of baking soda, and a pinch of salt, then added it to the mixer, along with a bag of chocolate chips and of course some walnuts.
Using a mini ice-cream scooper, create cookies 1 inch apart on a baking stone or pan (stones seem to keep things from burning badly!) Bake for 25 minutes at 325 F for chewy cookies :-). Shorten the bake times for metal pans.
And, of course, share the beaters with your little sister.
