Chocolate Chip Butter Cookies


These will remind you of melt in your mouth butter cookies from a good bakery. We usually make them for our Christmas Cookie Trays.

350°F about 65 cookies

1 pound of butter
Powdered Sugar
1/2 tsp. Salt
2 tsp. Vanilla
4 1/2 cups flour
2 cups or 12 oz. semi-sweet chocolate pieces.

Cream butter, 2 cups of powdered sugar. Add salt, vanilla, and flour. Mix well. Stir in pieces.

Roll into 1” balls and flatten with fork dipped in powdered sugar on ungreased baking sheet. Bake 15 minutes at 350°F. Sprinkle with additional powdered sugar while hot.

These are such a favorite at Christmas I decided to re-publish the post.
