I have been using this recipe to make cookies for my family and my husband's family for Christmas for over 10 years. Everyone loves these cookies! The only problem I ever had was the cookies used to come out flat. I eliminated this problem by making the dough the night before and leaving it in the refrigerator. I also recently started using parchment paper on my aluminum baking pans instead of baking spray or butter. The cookies come out perfect now and cleaning the pans is a snap. Since parchment paper comes in rolls and tends to curl up it can be a little tricky getting that first batch on the paper (an extra set of hands is very helpful). Once the pan has been in the oven the paper flattens out and is very easy to work with.

Classic chocolate chip cookie recipe. I leave out the nuts when I make it.

I made this recipe with Splenda Sugar Blend (50% sugar, 50% Splenda), and SmartBalance 50/50 Butter Blend, to try to be a bit healthier, and they turned out great! I was nervous, but really happy when they were done.

A classic. My great aunt used to make me these when I was a little girl. Still love them. My grandchildren love them now.

These are a staple in my household! They never last long. I don't think I will ever try a different chocolate chip cookie recipe. One thing I do have to say is that I only used to use light brown sugar and the cookies seemed to turn out very flat. One day I switched to dark brown sugar and they seemed to come out thicker and fix the problem. Make sure to use dark brown sugar so you don't come across the same problem!
