1 c. butter, melted
3/4 c. sugar
3/4 c. brown sugar
2 eggs
1 overflowing tsp. vanilla
7 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
18-24 oz. chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cream together butter and sugars, then beat in eggs and vanilla. Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir into butter mixture, forming a stiff batter. Add chocolate chips and nuts, if desired. Use an ice cream scoop to drop batter on ungreased cookie sheet. Makes 27 big cookies. Bake 15 minutes at 325 degrees.

SECRET: Overdose on chocolate chips and under bake for chewy moist cookies.
