Requests for CCC recipes

Hey loyal blog readers (all seven of you):

I am currently doing some research on the great American Chocolate Chip Cookie (CCC, for short).  I’m doing this because a) I’m a complete and total dork, b) I’m a food whore, and c) because I promised my younger sister that I would help her make the best chocolate chip cookies.  This weekend, I made two different batches in my research.  I, of course, made the traditional Toll House recipe, and also a recipe from my culinary hero, Alton Brown.

If you make those really cake-y CCCs (that are puffy and really light), you don’t need to bother sending me the recipe.  (As far as I’m concerned, those can barely be called CCCs).  I’m also not looking for any recipes that are “gourmet.”  I don’t need CCC’s with caramelized saffron and Rose Petals or anything like that…even if they are really good.  Just your basic cookie recipe.

Please e-mail them to me at DrChumley (at sign here) that one gmail place.

The person who submits the best recipe will win a prize.  Or not.  I haven’t decided.  Just help a brotha out.

Thanks!

    Ok, Matt. These cookies rock!! They are made with LOTS of butter, which is never a bad thing. Honestly, the best cookie recipe I’ve ever had.

    1 lb. Butter
    2 c. Brown Sugar
    1 1/2 c. Sugar
    3 eggs
    2 tsp. Vanilla

    6 c. Flour
    1 1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
    1 1/2 tsp. Salt
    4 to 6 c. Chocolate Chips

    Optional (Which I’ve never done)
    2 c. Chopped Nuts
    2 c. Raisins
    1 1/2 c. Blenderized Quick Oats (In place of part of the flour)

    Cream together butter and sugars. Add eggs one at a time. Add vanilla. Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix for 3 minutes. Add 4 to 6 cups chocolate chips and mix. Roll dough into 1 inch balls, flattening slightly with the palm of your hand. You can freeze half the dough in freezer bags if desired for fresh cookies later. Bake on parchment paper lined cookie sheets at 350 for 8 to 11 minutes.

    Let me know how these turn out. Good luck!

    Matt, the very best ccc recipe that I have ever found is on the Crisco butter flavored shortening canister. Seriously.
