Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies

This recipe came from Ada Castle. It was typed on an index card with a type writer...so it must be old. I will tell you all about Ada Castle another day. But, this recipe is called Mrs. Field's Chocolate Chip Cookies. I made this recipe a few weeks ago for the first time and it made a TON of cookies. A TON, I tell you. It called for like 4 sticks of butter (1 lb!) and 6 cups of flour. Holy moly. So, this time I cut the recipe in half and changed it up a bit. I did not have enough of one kind of chocolate chips, so I used three kinds. I also used some of my whole wheat and they turned out really well.

3/4 tsp. baking soda

Enjoy!
