Favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies

Do you have a favorite cookie recipe that you just keep coming back to? Well, this is mine. I'm sooo into trying new recipes these days, but Chris just always says he really just wants me to make these ones because they never fail, and they are THAT good! My roommate in college always made these and her Dad worked at Hershey's and I'm pretty sure that's where she got her recipe from. The only thing I tweaked and you WONT be surprised is that instead of using plain old milk chocolate chips, I use the mix bag of milk chocolate and PEANUT BUTTER chips! And Chris says I can't mess with that because that's what makes these cookies a little bit more unique than plain old chocolate chip cookies.
Ingredients:
Makes approx: 3 dozen cookies

2 sticks butter, softened
1 Cup Brown sugar
3/4 Cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
2 eggs -beaten
3 1/4 Cups flour
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 Cups Milk Chocolate & Peanut Butter Chips

Preheat oven to 370 and in a large bowl combine your butter, sugars & vanilla with a wooden spoon, and in your eggs and stir until well combined. In a separate bowl add all your dry ingredients and slowly add to your wet ingredients and stirring with your wooden spoon. Add your chips and mix in.  At this point, if you have time, chill your dough for an hour and it will totally be worth it, not absolutely necessary though.   Take a large spoon and drop (don't roll your dough) onto your un-greased cookie sheet and bake 9-10 min until the peaks of your cookies slightly brown. Cool and enjoy!
