Nestle Toll House Cookies Recipe

Is there any cookie that generates more memories than Nestle Toll House Cookies? I think not.

Buttery and rich from white sugar, brown sugar, butter and vanilla, these cookies belong with a tall glass of milk or a hot cup of coffee. 

They are similar to my Egg-Free Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe but only Nestle Toll House, of course, uses eggs.

These cookies make any gathering a party.

These cookies are guaranteed to make any brown bag lunch-er smile. 

Nestle Chocolate Chip Cookies, recipe conveniently printed on the back of the yellow bag, are my first memory of baking with my mom. 

I've got other chocolate chip cookie recipes in my arsenal but these Nestle Toll House hold a special place.

I remember standing on a chair, spatula in hand, an apron hanging from my waist, in the small kitchen of our house on Williams Air Force Base in Arizona.

I was six or seven. 

On the counter in front of me was a bowl of freshly mixed Nestle Toll House cookie dough studded with semi-sweet chocolate chips.

My mom was at my side warning me about the dangers of eating too much raw cookie dough.

Nestle Toll House Cookies were also the first cookies I made for my dad by myself. I was probably ten. 

I remember having a friend over for one of these baking sessions.

Judging from the immense size and shape of the cookie dough she unceremoniously plopped in uneven rows on the cookie sheet, my friend had clearly never baked before. 

I exchanged a look with my mother over my friend's head. I think we were both horrified and a bit saddened that my friend didn't know what she was doing. 

But, we didn't make her feel bad. We just showed her how we portioned out and arranged dough and into the oven the tray went.
