1 cup margarine, melted (still warm)

3/4 cup granulated sugar

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 t. egg replacer (equivalent to 2 eggs)

4 T. water

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375º F.

Melt margarine. In a large mixing bowl, combine sugars and melted margarine until well blended. Add in the vanilla, egg replacer and water and blend until well mixed.

Measure the flour, baking soda and salt into a large measuring cup. Add to the butter and sugar mixture and stir until well combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.

Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto cookie trays lined with parchment paper. Bake for 8-10 min., depending on desired level of crispness. Allow to cool on the tray for 5 min. before removing to wire rack to cool completely.

Nestle Toll House Cookies (back of bag)

Yield: 42 cookies

Optional: Add 1 c. chopped nuts along with the chocolate chips. Also, the original recipe says to use 2 c. of chocolate chips, but that seemed like a lot to me. However, if you like your chocolate chip cookies more chocolatey, then by all means go for it!
