Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
Chocolate chip cookies from scratch are my favorite dessert. Easy to make, they're slightly crispy around the edge, soft and chewy in the middle.

Instructions
Pre-heat the oven to 375° F.
Cream (or mix together) the softened butter, cane sugar, and brown sugar.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing well.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Mix the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture.
Stir the chocolate chips in by hand, thoroughly mixing the chocolate chips into the cookie dough.
Optional Step:
Cover and chill the cookie dough for about 2 hours. This helps make a very chewy cookie.
Using a cookie scoop, drop cookies onto a cookie sheet.
Bake at 375° F for 10-11 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden and done.
Remove the cookies from the cookie sheet, and let them cool on a wire rack.
Serve with a nice tall glass of ice cold milk.

Notes
Nuts are an optional add-in. We've used walnuts, but pecans would be delicious too.
