Rich and classic chocolate chip cookies with nary a pre-made mix or dough in sight! (Nov 2010)

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
1 1/8 cup flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350˚F. Soften butter, mix with sugars. Add vanilla and egg. Mix dry ingredients together and add to the butter mix. Stir in chocolate chips (dough will be thick). 

Roll into bite-size balls and place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges just turn brown. (If cookies are too thin, work in more flour).
