Camille's Chocolate Chip Cookies

Sometimes you have to stick with the classics.  This is a recipe that we received from Tom's sister Camille and it is the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe.  We usually don't add the chopped nuts, but they do make for an extra crunchy and delicious cookie. 















Prep time: 10 mins
Cooke time: 9-11 mins
Makes: 5 dozen

INGREDIENTS:
2 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs 
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups chocolate chips
1 cup chopped nuts

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Combine dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl.  In a second bowl or mixer, beat butter and sugars, then add vanilla.  Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.  Gradually stir in flour mixture.  Stir in chocolate chips and nuts.
