Okay, this is a very basic recipe, but I use it for my chocolate chip cookies, triple chip, white chocolate macadamia nut, pretty much any "chip" cookie.
Ingredients:
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup soft butter
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup chips (chocolate, butterscotch, triple, peanut butter, white chocolate, etc)
1/2 cup nuts if desired (walnuts, pecans, macadamia, etc)
Directions:
Mix the 2 sugars, butter, egg and vanilla until creamy. Dump in flour and put the salt and soda on top of flour. Mix until just crumbly. Sprinkle the chips and nuts over the batter evenly and mix until it forms a ball. Dough should stick together, but not be sticky. If too dry add a tablespoon of milk at a time until it sticks together. If too sticky, add in a tablespoon of flour at a time until tacky but doesn't stick to your fingers.
Shape into desired sized balls and gently press down slightly (not flat, just not round anymore). Space about 1 1/2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 8-10 minutes. Do not overcook, cookies should be a light golden color when done, and still soft. Cool on a wire rack until firm and store in an airtight container. If you don't plan on consuming within a few days, then freeze.
