Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

Don't you just hate getting used to a new oven. When we moved into our new house I went from a wonderful gas oven to an electric one. My husband clearly suffered the most in this ordeal because the once perfectly wonderful chocolate chip cookies of mine were different. Well after half a dozen batches and some fumblig around with the temperature nob these cookies are back with a vengance.

There are a couple tricks of the trade that, though aren't nessesary, just make them even better.

Mix together
1 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup regular sugar
 2 eggs and
1 tsp vanilla

Tip numero uno: You can just melt the butter in the microwave BUT if you put it in a pan and melt it on medium heat wait for it to get a sort of golden brown color then pour it into a bowl and continue with the recipe it will give it just a hint of a nutty flavor that makes you say "wow I don't know what it is exactly but these are the best chocolate chip cookies ever"

Tip numero deux: Try using dark brown sugar instead of the regular medium color. This also changes the flavor just so to make people wonder how you did it. Also the brown sugar is what keeps these cookies super soft.

Monving on.

After you have your initial mixture all combined you then want to add:
2 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda

Then stir in half a bag of the Hersheys semi sweet (because they are definetly the best)

Bake for 10 minutes at 350' F Let the cookies cool on the cookie sheet for 5-10 minutes before taking them off.
