Ghirardelli Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Ghirardelli Chocolate

I have used Ghirardelli chocolate chips in my cookie recipe and they are wonderful. But, did you know you can order fresh baked brownies and chocolate chip cookies from Ghirardelli? This is a wonderful option for those who don't bake or don't have time to bake.

They offer Christmas gifts, ornaments, business gifts, fundraising opportunities for your organization, beautiful favor boxes for your wedding or special event.
Ingredients
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 cups (12-oz. pkg.)
Ghirardelli Chocolate Chips


Preheat oven to 375°. Combine flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
