The Four C's. They can't be beat. I've heard that it's the salt that makes or breaks a perfect chocolate chip cookie, but over time I've come to think differently. I think it's the brown sugar. And then the salt. And then the chocolate chips. Whether they be pieces, chunks or chips-- dark, semi-sweet or milk chocolate, it's a personal preference. I like using chips because they're classic, but I really dig a cookie with chunks.
Portion out your cookies using a melon baller or an ice cream scoop and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for 1 hour and then label a resealable plastic bag and place your frozen cookie balls in it. Pull out as many or as few as you need when you need cookies for the bake sale or for a quick treat. Just add 2 minutes to your baking time.
