"Two eggs, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup regular sugar, 2 sticks softened butter. Fold in 2 1/4 cups flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and a couple tablespoons of vanilla. For an extra chocolate jag, toss in 3 tablespoons of cocoa. Oh, don't forget 2 cups of chocolate chips. Bake 'em at 375 degrees for 10 minutes."
This is very similar to the Toll House cookie recipe, but with even more vanilla which I think is an excellent idea. And that extra cocoa powder looks good too!
Edit: For metric measures, 250 ml white sugar, 250 ml soft butter, 530 ml flour, 2.5 ml salt, 5 ml baking soda, 30 ml vanilla, (optional 45 ml cocoa), 250 ml chocolate chips.
I wonder if someone could do this in by-weight measures? Flour is too compressible to measure accurately by volume.
I'd put it here but the experience of cutting / pasting on iPhone is painful. (Hints and tips gratefully received).
