Here’s a chocolate chip recipe I’ve baked many times. It appeared in the
San Francisco Chronicle several years ago.
(NOTE: Michael Bauer is the Food Editor of the San Francisco Chronicle. I
don’t agree with many of his restaurant reviews, but I really like his
cookie recipe.)
Preheat oven to 325.
Beat together butter and sugars until light and creamy, about 3 minutes
with an electric mixer. Beat in vanilla and eggs.
Combine flour, baking soda and salt. Gradually add to butter mixture. Stir
in chocolate chips and pecans.
Using a small ice cream scoop or a 1/4-cup measuring cup, drop batter onto
a greased cookie sheet, spacing 3 inches apart. Bake until golden brown,
about 15 minutes. Cool on baking sheet before removing to rack
