The original Toll House Cookie recipe from the back of the bag! This is the chocolate chip cookie recipe we grew up making; they are perfect!

Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup 2 sticks salted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups Nestle Toll House Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels ((12 ounce package))
  • 1 cup chopped nuts ((I used pecans))

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.

  2. 2

    In a large mixing bowl combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to combine and set aside.

  3. 3

    In a second bowl add the sticks of butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Beat together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes (you can beat them by hand, with an electric hand mixer, or with a stand mixer).

  4. 4

    Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

  5. 5

    Add the vanilla and beat to combine.

  6. 6

    Gradually beat in the flour mixture.

  7. 7

    Stir in the morsels and the nuts.

  8. 8

    Drop a heaping tablespoon of dough onto your baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.

  9. 9

    Bake cookies for 9 to 11 minute or until golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for 2 minutes after baking. Remove to wire racks to cool completely.
