Food Nanny's Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have another recipe I love, but it calls for shortening, so I love that I can use butter with this recipe and they turn out wonderful every time.

1 cup butter at room temperature

1 cup sugar

1 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1 tsp. vanilla

2 eggs

3 cups of flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. salt

1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat butter, sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy with electric mixer. Add vanilla and eggs and beat another minute. Sift the flour baking soda, and salt together. Add to the butter mixture until well combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Spoon onto cookie sheet and bake 8-10 minutes. Do not overbake. They freeze well.
