Silas & Mommy Make Chocolate Chip Cookies

Silas needed some extra diversion today, and Mommy needed something sweet, so we are going to show you how to make chewy chocolate chip cookies.

We found the recipe for chewy chocolate chip cookies here: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/the-chewy-recipe/index.html

First, we melted some butter in a pan, you could use the microwave too, but we like to do it the "natural way"

Pour in the melted butter and add the sugar.

Diligently watching the butter and sugar become creamy
It should look like this creamy texture. Now you can add the eggs, milk, and vanilla.

In a separate bowl combine your dry ingredients.

Then pour it in carefully.
Then its time for the chocolate chips, take a handful from the bag and eat it, then put a few in the dough, then a few more in your mouth, until your have 2 cups of chips in the bowl.
Then look mournfully into the bowl knowing mommy put the bag of chips away already. Just one more handful please!Ahhh! that's better, make sure you lick the beater when your done! Very important step!

Chewy Chocolate Cookies

2 Sticks of unsalted butter (melted)
2 1/4 c flour (whole wheat)
1 t salt
1 t baking soda
1/4 c sugar
1 1/4 c brown sugar
1 egg
1 egg yoke
2 T milk
1 1/2 t vanilla
2 c chocolate chips

Melt butter in sauce pan. Pour into mixer and combine with sugar and mix until creamy. Add egg & yoke, milk, vanilla and mix well. Then add dry ingredients until well combined. Add in the chips until thoroughly mixed in. Place dough in fridge for a little while (it makes cookies a little bit more plump while they are baking) Preheat oven to 375.(I put my oven on 350 for 12 minutes...my oven tends to bake pretty quickly.) Spoon out dough balls onto cookie sheet and bake for about 12-14 minutes. Enjoy!

Look I'm going to take a bite, oh its going to be so good, I had to wait all the way until after I finished my lunch!
Oh my...ummmmm...soooo good!
I like them too Mommy! Why don't you feed me them more often? Instead of the yogurt!
