Soft and Chewy Cookies


This is a Hershey recipe cut from magazine.

1 cup butter (no substitutes)
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 pkg. (10 or 12 oz.) Hershey's chips or baking bits (any flavor)

Heat oven to 350 deg. In large mixer bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add corn syrup, egg, and vanilla; beat well. Stir together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to butter mixture, beating well. Stir in chips or bits.

Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until lightly browned and almost set. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely. Cookies will be softer the second day.

About 3-1/2 dozen cookies.

Variation:

For CHOCOLATE cookies: Decrease flour to 2-1/4 cups and add 1/4 cup Hershey's cocoa or Hershey's European Style Cocoa. For best results, use Hershey's/Reeses Baking Chips and Hershey's cocoa.
