I have never been able to make chocolate chip cookies. Mine always end up flat and crunchy, in fact they don't even look appetizing at all. I had already given up trying to make a good chocolate chip cookie when we arrived at my sister in law, Jocelyn's house one day and she pulled these out of the oven. This recipe was the first one that I was able to get right. You need to be sure to add a little more flour if you live at a higher elevation.
SOFT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoons baking soda
1 cups butter, softened
3/4 cups packed brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1 (3.4 ounce) packages instant vanilla pudding mix
2 eggs
1 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cups chopped walnuts (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Sift together the flour and baking soda, set aside. In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and white sugar. Beat in the instant pudding mix until blended. Mix in the eggs and vanilla. Slowly add the flour mixture in. Stir in the chocolate chips and nuts. Drop cookies by rounded spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Note: I have to add 1/4 cup of flour becuase of the higher elevation.
Bake for 10-12 minutes in the preheated oven. Edges should be golden brown.
