Triple Chunk Cookies

Here's another delicious chocolate chip cookie. They are big and chunky, and trust me, that's how they are supposed to be. The recipe calls for milk chocolate, white chocolate, and semi-sweet chocolate, but you can easily substitute if one of these chocolates doesn't appeal to you. I also didn't add nuts to mine because I find that most people prefer cookies without nuts. This recipe comes from one of my young women at church... she is an awesome baker!

Triple Chunk Cookies
{makes approx. 3 dozen}

4 Cups Flour
1 tsp. baking Soda
1 tsp. Baking Powder
3 Sticks Butter, softened
1 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar, packed
2 Eggs
1 TBSP, Vanilla + 1 tsp.
1/4 tsp. Salt
1 Cup Milk Chocolate Chips
1 Cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
1/2 White Chocolate Chips
1 Cup Chopped Nuts {optional}


Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Sift dry ingredients in a medium size bowl & set aside. In the bowl of your electric mixer, cream together sugar and butter. Add eggs and vanilla and continue to cream. Slowly add dry ingredients while continuing to mix, until all incorporated. Add chocolate chips  {& nuts if using} and mix by hand. Form into large balls and slightly flatten. Bake on parchment covered baking sheets for 12-14 minutes. Cool on wire racks... they won't really flatten out much in the baking process, so you will want to give them a good amount of time to cool down since they will be thick!
