Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies
The old adage “you don’t mess with success” is certainly true when it comes to Chocolate Chip Cookies. The original recipe was invented by Ruth Wakefield, who was the proprietor of the Toll House Inn in the mid 1930’s, and was so popular after being printed in a local newspaper that Nestle semi sweet chocolate bars kept selling out. Mrs. Wakefield contacted Nestle and struck a deal to have her recipe printed on the wrapper, in return for a life time supply of the chocolate. Not long after Nestle began marketing the now famous “chips” to be used in the recipe. To this day I believe it’s the best recipe and can’t be improved upon.

In a mixer place the softened butter both sugars and vanilla and cream until well mixed. Add the eggs one at a time and mix thoroughly before adding the second. Slowly add the dry ingredients and when thoroughly combined add the chips and nuts and stir them into the batter.
Drop tablespoon size drops of batter (#60 scoop) onto ungreased baking sheets and bake for 9 – 11 minutes. Remove from oven and let sit on baking sheet for about 2 minutes before placing on wire racks to cool completely.
You can double the recipe but make sure you have a sturdy spoon to mix in the chips and nuts.

Another of those silly recipes that aren’t supposed to be for pups, in this case because of the chocolate. Lucky for me, dad does bake off a few, sans the chips, so that I can evaluate them. I give them 5 paws
