PERFECT THICK CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 300.
• In a sifter combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Sift onto wax paper. Set aside.
• Beat butter and brown sugar 4 minutes on medium speed until soft. Scrape bowl.
• Add eggs, rum, and vanilla. Beat 1 minute on medium speed. Scrape bowl.
• On low speed, gradually add flour mixture (should take about a minute).
• Add chocolate chips and mix 30 seconds on low. Use a spatula to finish mixing dough if needed.
• Spoon 2 heaping tablespoons of dough per cookie onto an ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake 28-30 minutes, rotating cookie sheet once during baking. I bake my cookies about 25-26 minutes so they are a bit more soft/chewy.
