over chocolate chip cookies that is. I have always had a problem with flat cookies. Tasty, but flat. That is now a thing of the past! I have consumed more cookies in the past few days than I care to count!..but I do so love them!

1 bag 60% Cacao Bittersweet Chocolate Chips (I prefer Ghirardelli)

1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
