Chocolate Chip Cookies Mk. 3

In my quest for the best chocolate chip cookie, I tried another recipe. I still think the pudding version wins compared to this one for flavor.

Ingredients

• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 eggs, at room temperature
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 2 tsp hot water
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. 
3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. 
4. Dissolve baking soda in hot water. Add to batter along with salt. 
5. Stir in flour, in small batches.
6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
7. Drop by large spoonfuls onto parchment paper covered cookie sheets.
8. Bake for about 10-13 minutes, or until edges are nicely browned.

Thoughts:
These were ok. I feel like there needs to be more salt. They also took a while to brown, 15 minutes or so, but then again, my oven is slow.

Next Time:

• 1 tsp of salt
