Grandma Helen's Chocolate Chip Cookies

We're spending the summer at Grandma and Grandpa's house, and this was what we were greeted with- does it get any better?! These were some yummy cookies, so I got Grandma to share the recipe!

Grandma Helen's Chocolate Chip Cookies

Cream together:
1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar

Add:
2 eggs
1 tsp. soda
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla

Mix and add 3 1/2 cups flour. Mix well and stir in 1 bag of chocolate chips or 1/2 (or 1/2 bag chocolate chips and 1/2 bag of plain m&m's).

Bake for 11 minutes at 350 degrees.

*Tip: Freeze balls of dough scooped with a small ice cream scoop onto a lined cookie sheet. When they are frozen, place into a Ziploc bag so they're ready when you want quick cookies!

My grandma's name is Helen, too! I might just have to try these for that fact alone :)
