Heather's Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is my special chocolate chip cookie recipe that I give to no one except people I like.

2 & 1/2 cups Flour
1tsp Salt
1tsp Baking Soda

1 & half sticks butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1tbs vanilla
2 eggs
Lots of Chocolate Chips (at least one bag but two never hurts)

Heat oven to 375 degrees F. In a small bowl mix the flour, salt and baking soda. Next, with a mixer, cream the butter and sugar until smooth, add the vanilla as you are mixing them. Beat in the eggs into the butter, sugar and vanilla mixture. Once all the wet ingredients are combined slowly beat in the flour mixture adding in one third increments. Add the chocolate chips to the mixture. Finally drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and bake for 9-11mins.
