MERRY SUGAR COOKIES 
2 3/4 c. all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 c. butter, softened (2 sticks)
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 (9 oz.) pkg. Nestle Toll House semi-sweet chocolate Merry Morsels, divided (1 1/2 c.)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In small bowl combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; set aside. In large mixer bowl, beat butter and sugar until creamy. Beat in egg and vanilla extract. Gradually beat in flour mixture. (Batter will be stiff.) Stir in 1 cup Nestle Toll House semi-sweet chocolate Merry Morsels. Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls; place on ungreased cookie sheets. Gently press 3 or 4 of the remaining Merry Morsels on top of cookies.

Bake 8-10 minutes or until cookies are puffed and slightly golden at edges. Let stand on cookie sheets 2 minutes. Remove from cookie sheets; cool.
