One of my good friend's daughter is getting married tomorrow. She is serving homemade cookies at her reception. What a great idea. I volunteered to help her a little and have been baking chocolate chip cookies this morning---about 20 dozen.
Nothing like a hot cookie from the oven.
I only ate a little...
Here is what 150 or so cookies looks like.
Here is the recipe. It is THE BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE recipe I have ever found. It calls for soda---not common among chocolate chip cookie recipes.
THE BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE RECIPE
Cream:
2/3 c. soft shortening(I used butter flavor Crisco)
2/3 c. butter
1 c. sugar
1 c. brown sugar
Mix in:
2 eggs
1 t. vanilla
Add:
3 c. flour
1 t. salt
1 t. soda
Bake at 375* for 8-10 minutes.
The perfect cookie...promise :)
It has been a bit of a rough- go lately. Too many things on my mind and stresses. Suffice it to say, today I am grateful for answered prayers and peace. Life is better.
Hope you have time to make chocolate chip cookies today--it will make it better!!
Be Nice to People,
Julie

Mmmm... happiness in a bowl!
What a sweet-heart you are to help bake cookies. I know it will be much appreciated :)
I have to agree with your claim of the best chocolate cookie recipe .... this is the same recipe that I have been using for 24 years :)
Hope everything works out, and life gets less stressful for you. I just know if we could really get Spring, we would all feel so much better :)
Thankfully, we have a loving Heavenly Father that loves us and answers our prayers !
Happy St Paddy's day Julie!
The cookies look sooo yummy! The dough is almost my favorite way to eat them! hehe
OUr oldest daughter also had homemade cookies for her recption. I was so GRATEFUL for everyone who helped me make cookies! So bless your heart!
Sorry for the stresses and rough and go in your life....I'm so, so so so grateful for the blessing of being able to pray! And know beyond any doubt that my prayers are heard! And answered too!
Hugs!
How could we get through this earthly probation without prayer???
I know I may have committed mayhem and been a couple of boys short (due to their attitudes and choices...) if not for prayer! SOme days I just 'cling' to that peace that comes from prayer. :-)
hugs

I think Brooklynn and I should bake us up some of these today. Yours look PERFECT! Yummm :D
