Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies with Levi

A friend of mine gave me the idea of baking with Levi. I have tried before and well.. he was a pain, so haven't tried again. But last week thought it could be something fun for us to do together. Levi LOVES pretend cooking on his play stove.. so surely real cooking must be fun?
It was a partial success... and fun.. so it was more of a success than not. And that's the most important thing isn't it? But you should totally make these.. they are SOOO yummy. Kinda like Subway cookies. Very yum!

My VERY handy helper

Recipe-

Ingredients

• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 3/4 cup melted butter
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup of white sugar
• 1 TBS vanilla essence 
• 1 egg
• 1 egg yolk
• 2 cups of chocolate chips (or substitute some for berries or nuts)

Directions
Preheat the oven to 165 degrees C. Grease cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.
Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
In a medium bowl, cream together the melted butter, brown sugar and white sugar until well blended. Beat in the vanilla, egg, and egg yolk until light and creamy. Mix in the sifted ingredients until just blended. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand using a wooden spoon. Drop cookie dough 1/4 cup at a time onto the prepared cookie sheets. .
Bake for 15 to 17 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the edges are lightly toasted. Cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
