NEW HAMPSHIRE: Munch your way across the USA. The state of NH is now represented. This recipe is from "Capitol Cookies" with recipes from every state & Washington, DC. This recipe was submitted by The Children's Place, Concord, NH, Cynthia A Sullivan, Chairperson. I have personally made these cookies and they are really good. I love my toll house chocolate chip recipe but I'll admit that this recipe is just as good.

How To Make new hampshire-abbey's chocolate chip cookies

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 375. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Combine flour, baking powder and salt and set aside.
  • Step 2
    Beat butter until light and fluffy. I actually used butter crisco and beat it just as I would if using butter.
  • Step 3
    Gradually beat in both sugars. Mix in eggs and vanilla. Stir in flour mixture until well blended.
  • Step 4
    Fold in chocolate chips and nuts and mix by until well blended. I use a wooden spoon to do this.
  • Step 5
    Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls (about 2" apart) onto ungreased cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. I always spray mine even though it calls for ungreased. I also use foil when I'm out of parchment paper.
  • Step 6
    Bake at 375 for approximately 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned. Note: you can use only one package of chocolate chips if you want.
