Since I was a little girl, I have been baking cookies, always trying to make them 'better'. I'm still doing this and my family and friends love it because they are always the 'testers'!!! Chocolate Chip cookies are the number one favorite and even tho I am a Grandma, I am still 'trying' new ways of baking!

    Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and add to sugar mixture. Stir in semi-sweet chocolate chips (12 oz. bag) and 1 cup of walnuts or pecans, if desired.
