Mom's Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
Description
This recipe does taste like Mrs. Field's. When I make them it does not take long for my husband and three boys to make them disappear.

•
1 cup butter, softened
•
1/2 cup white sugar

1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar and brown sugar. Beat in the eggs one at a time then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; stir into the creamed mixture until just blended. Finally, mix in the chocolate chips. Shape dough into golf ball sized balls and place them 3 inches apart into ungreased cookie sheets. Flatten slightly.
