Best Cookies Recipe Ever!

Hubby LOVES cookies and he loves the chewy ones the best. No matter what I did I couldn't make the cookies perfect. Through experiment I learned that the best way to get a really good cookie is to cook on a stoneware cookie sheet. I only bake on stoneware because everything comes out better on it. I actually don't know why I still have my old metal pans.
First measure out your unsalted softened butter and sugar then cream them together. Once it's nice and creamy add in your vanilla and your egg and continue to mix. In my house I use a handheld mixer, mostly because I don't have a stand mixer and I can't do this easily by hand.
Then add in your flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt and mix together. I use a spatula to get it started and then use my hand to finish mixing.
Once all combined well dump in your mini chocolate chips and mix well.
I use the mini chocolate chips because you get more chips throughout the cookie and what is a bite of cookie without a chocolate chip in it?
Now take small chucks of dough and place them on your stoneware cookie sheet. I choose to make our cookies pretty small. No matter what you know you are going to want to eat more than one so why not make them small so you can eat 2 or 3 without feeling guilty.
Oh look at all those YUMMY chocolate chips in those cookies! Time to go enjoy! At least one since these aren't THM approved cookies.
Ingredients: 
3/4 cup softened unsalted butter
3/4 cup brown sugar 
1/4 cup granulated sugar 
2 tsp vanilla extract 
1 egg 
2 cups all purpose flour 
2 tsp cornstarch 
1 tsp baking soda 
1/2 tsp salt 
6 oz bittersweet chocolate chips
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In the bowl cream together softened butter and sugars. Add vanilla and egg and mix some more .
  3. Pour in flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt and mix.
  4. Stir in MINI chocolate chips.
  5. Break off small amounts of dough depending on how large you want your cookies and place on your cookies sheet.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until your liking.  The bottoms will cook well on the stoneware and be easy to take off your pan but the tops will be nice and chewy!
  7. Let cool on an plate or cooling rack until cool enough to eat!
  8. Should make about 4 dozen cookies!

I can't wait to see all of your holiday traditions & I'm sure add a few to my list too! Holiday Traditions? What are those? I'm not sure we have any set up in our family. We never really had anything that we did every year growing up either. So I'm not surprised that we haven't thought about setting anything up for our kids either. Last year we tried doing the  Three Wise Men Gifts  but I of course bought more than just 3 gifts. So what is the plan this year for holiday traditions in our house? Bass Pro Shop Winter Wonderland to visit Santa Three wise men gifts  One Santa gift plus the stocking Baking cookies at Granny & Great Popa's house Baking cookies at Grandma & Popa's house with cousins & then heading to the local fire department & police station to share with the men & women that keep us safe throug

My Pregnancy Story with Monkey

So I have one of those crazy "I didn't know I was pregnant" stories. Yes I didn't know I was pregnant until I was pretty far along but I will get to that.  In May 2008 we picked up and moved out of state. At this time we had been completely off birth control for 2 years and nothing. We also found out when we first started trying that I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)  which basically meant "good luck getting pregnant". We decided that we would start the adoption process if we were not pregnant by the time we were 30 so we had a few years (still do actually! Yeah God!) So we were just enjoying life in Oklahoma and enjoying the small town life. Every Sunday morning we would walk down the street and enjoy breakfast at Selena's, we'd sit on our front porch and talk with the neighbors, and visit family in town at least once a week. Starting close to October I started feeling like something was wrong with me so I went to the OU campus in Tu
