Chocolate Chip Treasure Hunt


This is a very fun date activity (I think so anyway, it sounds fun.)so first you get a date then you go to people's houses and ask them for ingredients to a chocolate chip recipe. Tell them you will bring them some of the finished product to convince them if they are kind of hesitant...and it would be cool to show off you new found culinary skills. then you eat the cookies with you date...group.

My Favorite Cookie Recipe

Ingredients

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1teaspoon salt
1 cup (2sticks) butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 large eggs
2 cups (12 oz pkg) chocolate chips (I found out its super yummy if you do half milk and half semi sweet chocolate chips)
1cup chopped nuts (optional..I never put any in....they are gross)

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl. beat butter, granulated and brown sugar and vanilla in a large mixer bowl until creamy. add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. gradually beat in flour mixture. stir in chocolate chips and nuts if you ant them...its not required but the chocolate is.drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.

bake 9-11 minutes or until golden brown. cool on baking sheets ( I never do this...I like eating them right out of the oven all soft and the chocolate is still melty...yummmmm) remove from the wire racks and cool compleatly (unless your me and already ate the cookies so you should just ignore the last direction)

now you have a fun date and yummy cookies!!
