Chocolate chip cookies to sing about! LALALALALA

I have played with Nestly Toll House chocolate chip cookie recipe. One complaint I have heard from may a fine cook it that their cookies always turn out flat and to crispy. Many have said they use the recipe on the back of the chocolate chip bag and just can't get it to work out. After some trial and error I have finally got this recipe perfected.

2 1/4 cups flour
1 t baking soda
1 t salt
3/4 cup Butter (remember to use the real thing)
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 t vanilla
2 large eggs
2 cups chocolate chips
1 cup chopped nuts

The first thing I do is put the butter fresh for the fridge (because I never plan ahead) in my Kitchen Aid and beat it until it is lighter in color fluffier looking.
In a mixing bowl I mix flour, baking soda, and salt. Then I set it aside.
Next add both sugars to the butter. Remember sugar is a liquid when baked. When you pack the brown sugar in the measuring cup do not pack it to tight. After the sugar is mixed in add the vanilla and eggs. Once that has been mixed until smooth add the flour mixture and let it mix until smooth. Then add the chocolate chips. Now check the consistency of the dough. It should be sticky but it should still be able to form a ball. Bake at 375 for 9-11 minutes!

Kitchen Aid- If you really love cooking and baking give your self a wonderful gift and buy a Kitchen aid! If you already have one, Happy Day and Happy baking!!!
