Simple Chocolate Chip Cookies

Hello out there!  I know, I know, chocolate chip cookies are normal, and not  fun or different.  My dad makes some pretty yummy chocolate chip cookies, but they always seem to turn out flat and a little to greasy because of the amount of butter.  I started playing with his recipe, and hit upon the magic mixture!  Remember how I said they always seemed greasy?  I cut the butter almost by half and it worked!  They turned out beautifully, and looked like a cook book picture!

Chocolate Chip Cookies

1/2 cup and 2 T. butter (melted)

3/4 cup white sugar

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 large eggs

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

2 cups chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 375*.

Combine all dry ingredients (excluding chocolate chips) in a small bowl and set aside.

In a larger bowl mix together all wet ingredients BY HAND, and add half of flour mix at a time stirring well between additions.  Lastly, add chocolate chips and mix well.

Grease cookie sheet and drop about a flattened tablespoon of  batter on the pan two inches apart.

Bake for ten minutes and enjoy!

I hope you all enjoy...wait a minute.  Do guys see anything weird about this picture, or is it just me?

Looks like I'm not the only one who likes these cookies!
