The BEST Chocolate Chip Cookie

I've made a lot of cookies and have finally found the best recipe!   These cookies are soft and chewy and just perfect.   Best of all, they freeze well so I can always have cookies ready at a moments notice!

Makes 2 1/2 dozen
Ingredients
3/4 c. butter, softened
3/4 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. white sugar
1 egg
2 tsp. vanilla
2 c. flour
2 Tbsp. cornstarch
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 c. semi sweet chocoate chips

Cream butter and sugars in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy.

Blend in egg and vanilla.

In a seperate bowl, mix the dry ingredients together.

Slowly add in the dry ingredients to the mixing bowl until all incorporated. 

Stir in chocolate chips.

Place 1 inch rounded balls on a greased/lined cookie sheet.  **

Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.  Cookies will not look brown, they will appear a little under cooked.  That is the way they should look.   Do not overbake!!

** At this point, you can freeze the dough balls.   Once frozen, remove the dough balls from the sheet and store in the freezer in a ziploc bag.   When baking from frozen, add 1-2 minutes to bake time.
