Mrs. Field's Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is my all time favorite cookie recipe. No matter how many other recipes I've tried I always come back to this one. I originally found it in an old ward cookbook. It makes a LOT of cookies--so this is a great recipe when you are sharing with others--or taking them to an event. Also, I often freeze either the dough to make some later or just bake the cookies and freeze some already baked cookies. 1 1/2 cups sugar 2 cups brown sugar 1 pound butter (4 sticks) 3 eggs 2 tablespoons vanilla 2 teaspoons baking soda 6 cups flour 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 3 cups chocolate chips- this was 6, but 3 is perfect 2 cups nuts (optional)--I never add these because my kiddos don't like them In a mixing bowl, cream sugar, brown sugar, and butter together. Add eggs and vanilla. Mix well. Add baking soda, flour and salt. Stir until blended well. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts. Drop onto a cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-1...

Pesto

I can't remember where I got this recipe...sorry to the original source. I'm hoping for some good basil this year. I often make multiple batches and freeze them in 1/2 pint jars to pull out throughout the year. 3 cups fresh basil leaves 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts 4 cloves garlic, peeled 1/4-1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1 cup olive oil 1-2 lemons 1 tsp salt DIRECTIONS In a food processor, blend together basil leaves, nuts, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and cheese. Pour in oil slowly while still mixing. Stir in salt and pepper.

Hot Fudge Sauce

I don't think any explanation is needed. We LOVE this stuff. 1 cup evaporated milk 1/2 cup butter 1/2 cup cocoa 1 cup sugar 1/8 cup flour Boil all ingredients, stirring constantly until it thickens. Then add: 1 tsp vanilla dash of salt Serve over your favorite ice cream. YUM!
