Best Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

1½ cups all-purpose flour

1 ½ cups bread flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

Combine in medium bowl. Set aside.

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened

¾ cup dark brown sugar

¾ cup sugar

Add to mixer bowl. Beat on high speed, about 3 minutes or until light and creamy.

2 eggs, slightly beaten

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Add and beat on medium high speed, 1 minute or until combined.

1 bag (12 ounces, about 2 cups) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips

1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Stir in.  Chill at least 30 minutes.

Drop one heaping tablespoon of dough per cookie onto parchment-lined baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.

Bake, 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned.  

Makes about 4 dozen cookies

TIP:  Best to chill dough before you bake.  This makes a chewy center with a crispy outside. Place extra chips onto spooned dough mounds for a pretty chocolate chip presentation.

Tip:  Dough can be made ahead and frozen up to one month.
