Thursday Recipe - 3-Chip Cookies

These cookies are meant for the chocolate lover. They include three kinds of chocolate chips, and are some of my favorite comfort food.

This recipe makes somewhere near 4 dozen cookies I believe, as the original recipe was meant to make jumbo cookies. I've found that even though this recipe uses quite a bit of butter, the cookies can still stick to the pan, so I disregard the part about using an ungreased cookie sheet, instead lightly greasing the sheet for easier removal. I would reccommend testing a batch with the cookie sheet ungreased, and if you find they stick, then go ahead and grease them.

Ingredients:
4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 ½ cups butter, softened
1 ¼cups sugar
1 ¼ cups packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
½ cup white chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375° F. Combine flour, baking powder, and baking soda in medium bowl. Beat butter, sugar, and brown sugar in large mixing bowl until creamy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop dough by the spoonful 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheet. (If you want jumbo cookies, drop ¼ cup dough onto cookie sheet 2-4 inches apart.)

Bake for 12-14 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
