Chocolate Chip Cookies

I'm not quite sure where this cookie recipe originated. All I know is that my family has been making it ever since I was little. These cookies are great fresh out of the oven or even frozen in the freezer. I know that sounds weird to eat a frozen cookie, but don't frown on something you haven't tried!

What you need:

1 cup butter

1 cup sugar

1 cup brown sugar

2 tsp. vanilla

2 eggs

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. baking soda

3 cups flour

1/2 cup oatmeal

1 Bag Milk Chocolate Chips (Guittard is my favorite brand)

In a mixing bowl beat until creamed 1 cup of butter (softened in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds).

Add: sugar and brown sugar; mix

Add: vanilla, eggs, and salt; mix

Add: baking soda, flour, oatmeal, and chocolate chips; mix

Bake at 350 degrees for about 10-15 minutes (until cookies are slightly browned on top)
