Chocolate Chip Cookies - Our Amish Grandmother (Grossmummy)'S Re

• 2 1/4 - 2 3/4 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine, softened
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 3 1/2 ounces instant vanilla pudding
• 2 eggs
• 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips

1. Combine flour and baking soda. Set aside.
2. Combine butter, sugars, vanilla and pudding mix in large mixing bowl.
3. Beat until smooth and creamy.
4. Beat in eggs.
5. Gradually add flour mixture.
6. Stir in chocolate chips.
7. Drop by heaping teaspoons, about 2" apart, onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake @ 375 for 7-9 minutes, or until barely lightly browned. (Removing them while they still appear unbaked is the trick to having really soft/chewy/moist cookies, so experiment with it!)
8. Cool on trays a few minutes before moving to cooling racks.
