Chocolate Chip Cookies for a Cookie Exchange Party

Tomorrow, my husband has a cookie exchange party at work. I planned to make either Scandinavian chess cookies or Linzer Torte cookies, but didn’t have much time for elaborate baking. Instead, I baked these easy to make yet tasty chocolate chip cookies. I use this recipe quite often; it was printed on a flour bag.

I am excited to see what kind of home-made cookies my husband will bring back tomorrow.



1 cup packed brown sugar
¾ cup white sugar
1 cup margarine
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¾ tsp salt
¾ tsp soda
1 (12 oz) package chocolate chips
½ cup chopped nuts

Cream sugars and margarine. Blend in eggs and vanilla. Add flour, salt, and baking soda. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto baking sheets. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 to 12 minutes.

I'm linking this recipe to Foodie Friday at Designs by Gollum.

Hello Olga - thanks for your visit tonight. I can just imagine how magical Christmas will be for your family this year. Children's eyes just grow bigger and bigger as all the magical moments unfold. It will be so much fun. I remember the delight our children took in the tree and the lights. Those cookies look delicious.

Dearest Olga,

Well, these cookies will be very hard to match by anyone. Hope the ones that your husband brings home will be tasty ones too.
Enjoy your week and sending love to you,
Mariette

Hi Olga
I think everyone loves chocolate chip cookies, and at any time of year!
You're a good wife to bake for your hubby's exchange.
