National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day

Did you know today is National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day? Well, you do now! In honor of this truly fantastic holiday, I'm going to share my triple chocolate chip cookie recipe. I put it on Multiples and More's Facebook page this morning and squealed with excitement when one of the readers posted a photo of her triplets making the recipe. I mean, does it get any cuter than that?

Here's what you need:

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
 1 cup (2 sticks, 1/2 pound) butter, softened
 3/4 cup Sugar
 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
 2 eggs 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels
1/2 cup Milk Chocolate Morsels
1/2 cup White Chocolate Morsels

And here's how you make them:

Combine flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl.
Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla in large mixer bowl.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition; gradually beat in flour mixture.
Stir in morsels.
Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.
Hand beater to husband so he can try the dough and, as my Mom says, get worms.
Bake in preheated 375-degree oven for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown.
I usually switch them on the racks halfway between (that is if one if on the bottom rack and one is on the top)
Let stand for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

Enjoy!
