Easy Yummy Chocolate Chip Cookies by Cynthia S.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

2/3 cup margarine/butter (softened)*
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 egg  (I use the egg substitute so my kids can eat a lot of dough :)
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla

Then add:
about 2 cups flour (start a little less then add more if needed)
semi-sweet chocolate chips (almost a half a bag)

I put the first seven ingredients in a bowl and mix it really well.  You can do this by hand (but you have to do it fast and very well) or use a mixer. Then mix in the flour. The dough will be right if it no longer sticks to the bowl and it forms a soft mass of dough in the middle.  Then add the chocolate chips.  Bake at 350 for 8-10 min. Don't overcook!  Enjoy! 
¥ields: about 2 dozen

* I like using the Canola Harvest spread because it's healthier and you don't have to soften it, but you probably have to add a bit more flour.
