Chocolate Chip Cookies

  • 1 cup softened butter (2 sticks)
  • 3/4 cup white and brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • a pinch of salt
  • 2 – 2 1/4 cups flour

Preheat oven to 375 degrees fahrenheit. Drop one inch spoonfuls of batter on lightly greased cookie sheets. (I use Pam and wipe the excess off) Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes. Cool on wire rack and enjoy!

I know everyone has their own favorite chocolate chip recipe but I thought I would share mine. I can make these in my sleep – this is Marc’s favorite cookie and I bake them once every few weeks. While they are not very “clean” or healthy, I would rather have him munch on these if he has a sweet tooth then a bag of processed sweets from the store. So I guess in a way they are “clean”! I have experimented with using apple sauce, less sugar but I could never get it just right. I do, however, use organic and/or local ingredients. I would love to find a great vegan recipe, though. Any ideas?

Happy baking!

If you have your favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe, please share! I love getting new ideas and trying your best recipes!

Hello, and welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.

I started The Clean Eating Mama back in 2008 as a place to share my love of wholesome food and healthy living. Over the years, this little corner of the internet has grown and changed right along with me.

Here you’ll find simple, nourishing recipes, thoughts on clean eating and wellness, and little pieces of my everyday life. In many ways, this blog has become a personal diary of sorts. This is a place where I can share what I’m cooking, what I’m learning, what I’m loving, and where life happens to be taking me.

Healthy living doesn’t have to be perfect or complicated. For me, it’s about making choices that help us feel our best, enjoying good food, and continuing to learn and grow along the way.

So grab a cup of coffee or tea, stay awhile, and welcome to The Clean Eating Mama. Read full bio.
