STEPHANIE'S REALLY GOOD CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375.
• 2. Mix flours with baking soda and salt in a bowl and set aside. Again, if you can't find bread or pastry flour you can use all-purpose flour.
• 3. In a large bowl, combine butter, sugars and pudding mix.
• 4. Beat until smooth and creamy.
• 5. Beat in eggs and vanilla; gradually add flour mixture.
• 6. Stir in chocolate chips.
• 7. Chill the dough for a half hour in the refrigerator.
• 8. Drop by teaspoon full on a non greased cookie sheet, flatten a little if desired.
• 9. Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE-bake until they look like they may not quite be done. They will cook further on the cookie sheet once you take them out.
• 10. Let sit on cookie sheet for 2 or 3 minutes, just long enough for them to be able to be transported to a wire cookie cooling sheet.
• 11. Parchment paper can also be used and placed on top of the cookie sheet if you find that your cookies keep coming out too crispy.
