Best Toll House Cookies

Teresa Ambra
Best Toll House Cookies are the ultimate in Chocolate Chip Cookies! These jewels use 50% more chocolate chips and vanilla for flavor that just explodes in your mouth. Pecans add great crunchy texture. Terrific for tailgating or office parties, potlucks, backyard barbecues or Christmas Cookie Exchanges.

Equipment

  • 4 18x26" cookie sheet pans
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 electric mixer
  • 1 wooden spoon
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • 1 nut chopper if nuts are not previously chopped
  • 1 spatula
  • 1 small cookie scoop

Ingredients
  

  • 2 sticks unsalted butter softened (1 cup)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 1/4 cups UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour (bleached flour toughens baked goods)
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. sea salt
  • 18 oz. pkg. Toll House semi-sweet chocolate chips (one and a half--12-ounce packages)
  • 1 cup pecans chopped

Instructions
 

  • Cream butter, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla with an electric mixer in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs.
  • Beat well.
  • Combine flour, soda and salt and gradually beat into creamed mixture.
  • Stir in chocolate chips and nuts with a wooden spoon until well combined.
  • Scoop dough with a small cookie scoop and place onto greased cookie sheets.
  • Freeze on cookie sheets for 10-15 minutes.
  • Bake at 375° for 12-15 minutes.
  • Rotate cookie sheets on oven racks every six minutes of baking time.
  • Cool slightly.
  • Remove from cookie sheet.

Notes

NOTE: My cookie scoop held about 4 teaspoonfuls of cookie dough.
 
NOTE: Rotate cookies on racks every six minutes while baking.
 
NOTE: Each oven is different. I took cookies out of the oven right before they were done, at about 16 minutes of baking time. That way the chocolate chips will sink down into the cookies and be gooier.
 
NOTE: If you don’t freeze the cookie dough, these cookies may be done in about 9-11 minutes. However, this method is not recommended because the cookies will run on the cookie sheet and flatten like pancakes.
