Ruth’s Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ruth’s Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 1b butter (2 cups)
2 cups brown sugar
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 eggs
2 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
5 1/2 cups flour
4-6 cups chocolate chips

1. Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time beating for five minutes after each egg. Add vanilla.
2. Combine salt, baking powder, and flour in a bowl. Add one cup at a time to the butter mixture. When the flour mixture is incorporated and the dough is still a bit moist and sticky, stir in the chocolate chips. I recommend refrigerating the dough for at least two hours before baking.

3. Bake at 350° for 8 to 10 minutes.
