Ashley's chocolate chip cookies

I cant beleive I havent posted this recipe yet. Anyway, this is my chocolate chip cookie recipe that i made when i was only 14 yrs old. A lot of people already have the recipe since ive been giving it to my cousins and friends ever since the day i made it and so many people told me it was the best they've ever had. I posted the recipe on allrecipes.com and its been a huge allrecipes hit ever since. if you like traditional chewy chocolate chip cookies you'll love these. theyre slightly different from the tollhouse chocolate chip cookies, in that they're just a little puffier (not as flat)


Ashley's Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour (heaping)
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups milk chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 350
Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Gradually stir in the sifted ingredients, then stir in the chocolate chips. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
